: Well, you responded to me earlier suggesting, I take it upon myself to merge

: can do the merging?

I did the bulk of the work for the 7.0 stuff, at least getting things

: terrific news.  It also implies, we might get a USB-maintainer some
: time soon. I just want it soon/er/, because it has been far too long
: already...
