Chip, Again, we have to divide this into two parts. For Spring changes: I think it will have some effect on any pending feature to be merged but it will not be very large. It's a matter of changing some annotations at the component level. As for is there any pending features depending on Spring, I'm not certain. Several people have mentioned to me that they would like to use Spring for their feature and I told them that if so, then branch off of javelin. I like to hear from anyone who's done that. For storage changes: If we include Edison's hookups in this conversation, I would say the feature branches that involve storage will be impacted. --Alex
