The scores have been decreased in the upcoming proposed release ruleset. Not to -0.4 and -0.8, but they're no longer -4 and -8. I'm sure that we'll get to (it's been -4 and -8 for years, we're not in a huge rush to do anything now) decreasing them in the 3.2.x sa-update ruleset also once we've firmed up an opinion of what they should be going forward. Please stop beating the -4 and -8 horse. We agree. Daryl
