OK.

I am puzzled by the question mark after "Not yet", which I could interpret as "it is even questionable to Stefan that it may or may not happen", but I'd assume that kicking back to 'pu' and allowing it to be reroll will be taken as an opportunity to skip such a separate "plan" and instead to clearify the plan and design in an updated log message--that is fine by me, too.

Thanks.
