To clarify, I want to use packs, yes. But plenty of Cogito users are using HTTP and I want to give them some time to upgrade to the latest Git which supports pulling packs over HTTP. I'd say at least two to three weeks or me getting near the top of kernel.org object users, whichever comes first. :-)
