Sorry for the weird message. It was my misunderstanding; I
misunderstood Allison's message. I thought it was additional changelog
in the commit message. But it was that I forgot to have a changelog in
my v2. (I get used to v1:... and v2: ... so I thought Changes since v1
is like something I should put in the commit message.)

The v3 applies to the latest net.git (8e04823c120b). So no content is
changed in v4:

Thanks for your time.
