At this time we will check the methods delivered for any obvious "hacks" and file bugs for the providers of the service to remove/fix the hacks to take advantage of Early Manifest Import, if bugs have not already been filed. It does not appear that we are breaking any of the services that use these hacks (especially if they check for the expected state before applying the new state, the state will already be there and there should be no new state application). -- Sean Wilcox 303.272.9711 x79711
