I would be happy to continue working for the improvements as I don't plan to leave it as just the initial version. I worked on the v5 review notes, but if we are going to consider designing a different API, then it doesn't make much sense to send a v6 patch before finishing the design, which requires additional people in the topic. That would also mean some of the ongoing review discussion would be wasted. --- Regards, Onur
