Hi John,
This is not a full review, so I would recommend waiting for feedback
from others, but please:
1. Do not include the Change-Id as it is not obvious what public
resource it references
2. As this is a fix targeted at net, please do include a Fixes tag,
indicating the commit where this user-visible problem first
manifested.
Also, as an aside, please wait 24h between posting updated patches.
