I think I found the series more or less ready when I saw v7, but there was a good discussion between Michael Haggerty and you on that round after I thought so, and then you posted the reroll (v8) which is what is queued above. As I was not closely following the earlier exchange, I wanted to hear from Michael if everything is now good with v8, which hasn't happened as far as I recall.

Also in $gmane/273828 [*1*] you hinted (but without showing a firm commitment) that there might be a reroll coming, which was another reason why I wasn't in a hurry to merge v8 iteration down to 'next'.
