When sending a v2 like this one, it's nice if you can describe what changed since v1 here, after the line starting with 3 dashes "---". Providing a range-diff here, when it makes sense, could be a good idea and help reviewers too. Speaking of reviewers, thanking or just mentioning them is nice too while at it.
