I discussed this in Slack with Jens. I incorrectly assumed that my email was ignored for two weeks when I pinged the list back multiple times, instead of checking the list archives to see if there was an email that I never received.... which there was. Jens had already provided an answer to my questions the first time... which I appreciate. I only wish I had seen it before replying. This mistake was mine, and avoidable. Sorry for that.
