Hi Greg --

Cool!  I guess I mistakenly assumed that your "no new features"
requirement also implied "no fixes of fundamental design flaws". :-)

Having option (E) should make it easier to decide the best
technical solution, separate from the promotion timing and "where
does it land" question.

We'll get back to you soon...

Thanks!
Dan
