Yeah, that's probably the best course of action, just looking for
consensus, let's see if someone else chimes in.

No problem. As mentioned on the PSC meetings, I waited until I was
confident the approach is proved feasible, given basically the complexity

questions have been answered in the prototype phase, so, cool.
