Great discussion on this thread. I've summarized the votes and the comments below: +1: 7 votes Chiradeep, Ahmad, David, Marcus, Sebastien, Chip, Mathias +0: 0 votes -0: 1 vote Joe -1: 3 votes John, Francois, Outback Given the discussion that ensued and the results of the voting, I will *no longer block the release for this issue*. I understand that this is not the favorite resolution for everyone, but do understand that we are resolving this problem officially for our 4.2.0 release. Using the experimental system VM images will be an option for users that want the S3 functionality within 4.1. -chip
