I, at least, always understood that rule to be 'large' patches, which
this didn't strike me as.

In the past, we've also committed large patches which were submitted for
the first time to CF-4.

Think I'm about done, personally. I can't comment more without actually
looking at it and doing some research on it myself and I don't know that
I'll be able to do that any time soon, as I told Peter when he asked me
about it in NYC. That said, for my part, I don't like telling Greg that
he either has to review something else which was submitted but that he's
got no interest in (or which would take much longer), or not do
anything.
Thanks,
Stephen
