The one thing I’ll add in addition to what’s in the msg to Alissa is that the 
time from Brian raising an issue to having testable patches to fix the issue 
was about two days.  And, this all happened back at the end of ’13; what can I 
say the wheels of standardization move slowly while fixing an issue that might 
affect a noticeable swath of the Internet moves a little faster.
