Thanks so much for investigating this, Peter. And thanks to everyone else here
who helped get this sorted out--y'all have done great work. :)
I wanted to let you know that I've put together a draft of a report on these

People reading this list: hi please don't leak this to twitter/HN/etc just yet,
I'd like to give it a few days to settle before release. :)
