Oh, my curiosity certainly isn't worth changing your schedule for. I
don't have anything running yet. I have a couple of older Netra 240
machines (currently on S10) which I could use for some testing, but that
will take me some days to bootstrap, so no need to hurry with the bins
on your part. Whenever you are ready to make a workable release in your
normal schedule is fine with me.
