As a result we've moved away from their current implementation; we continue to run their tests and don't merge code which fails them, but bugs which pop up in the community or are intermittent get a lot less attention than other areas of RADOS do.

It's just one option — many people are less concerned about their switches than their hard drives, especially since two lost switches are an accessibility but not a durability issue. -Greg
