Not a big deal in this case, as I was very well aware that there was a preparatory change sent, so no harm done to me personally; I even asked Sébastien to rebuild on top of that patch.

For people who are helping to review the series but haven't paid attention to everything that was said on the list (read: almost all the people), it would have been better if it said "depends on bf990a2", instead of saying that it depends on the 'next' as a whole (which it doesn't).

Thanks.
