No... You didn't missed anything. Khuong is out last couple days. He
is currently implementing the dependence requirement using the _DED
method. As soon as he get this working correctly, he will post the
next version. Though, there isn't anything wrong with the last version
besides future potential change in the kernel which is very unlikely
to change for the next one or more release of the future kernel.
