Not yet.

So... no.  And the reason I'm saying Thursday is because I do not work
on the kernel every day of the week - in fact, I'm not in front of a
computer for three days of the working week.

So... Thursday.  Not earlier.  Be patient.

Bear in mind that I waited patiently on Monday - _all_ _day_ Monday - to
know how to fix these issues.  So the least everyone can do _for_ _me_
is to be patient over it and just plain wait until I can sort it.

Just like Linus is entitled to time off, I'm entitled to time off.  My
time off is just at a different time to normal folk.

Patience.
