Gentle ping.

Ping who ;)

Well, the ping worked - Jann replied! :)


I was hoping for more review activity. Were no changes expected from
the [2/5] discussion with Jann?

They are, but that discussion happened after the ping. There will be a new version some-when next week or so, after I figure out some details.
