I'll have a look ASAP, probably today.

However, "why not continue to review it", I think Jan put down quite
some sensible arguments for it. Also, as he said, there is no chance
that we _don't_ continue to review the series, it's just a matter of
priorities, which are influenced by a lot of factors.

Hey, everyone of us has his own workflow, and his own definitions of
what's "more efficient". :-)

Given the timing, I think it's after all fine that you "Kindly ping"
this series... Just don't get too far with that! :-D :-D

Anyway, and jokes apart, as said, I was already planning to have a look
at this soon.

Regards,
Dario
