Yup, I shall. The xarray-20180612 is the most recent thing I've
published, but I'm still going over the 0601 patchset looking for other
little pieces I may have dropped. I've found a couple, and I'm updating
the 0612 branch each time I find another one.

If you want to start looking at the DAX patches on the 0612 branch,
that wouldn't be a waste of your time. Neither would testing; I don't
think I dropped anything from the DAX patches.
