That's not what I meant I meant, you'd merge ONLY the maintainers patch in this PR Then, I'll go and take up the removals, and give it say, a couple weeks to let it marinade, and give it responses THEN submit a PR with the removals in it. Then happy days. Or I could also take the maintainers patch with me too... > > --- Thanks!
