Not at all. I think the deferral of that particular patch is the
correct thing to do because there are confirmed, real problems with it
that are not realistic to fix in an appropriate timeframe for the
release. The primary case that I'm objecting to is HS which you've
been saying will take 10 - 12 months to complete having by your own
admission not looked at the code or followed the discussion
particularly closely.
