yes, still running 2.4. So far no other patches needed, the idled stuff has been stable since September 2016. We have an automated testsuite for our whole distribution, so once there's a new 2.4 release candidate, we could try to plunge it in and give it a go. Do you want to cut a release straight from 2.4 git HEAD? Or apply some other patches first? Cheers, Thomas
