Sorry I've been slow on this thread, it's an inopportune time as I'm stuck in all day meetings all week...

Delay discouraging updates of JHBuild ? The main motivation so far for keeping JHBuild on life support was for Builder users who use the JHBuild integration features, giving Builder some time to catch up, and I think we're talking about a fairly low volume of backports for a fairly short time anyway so I'm not opposed. I don't want us to start moving backwards either. Great progress has been made and it's an ongoing effort, in the meantime there will be growing pains and we should be attentive and make sure people are not left behind.
