You have my consent to remove it on 13 > October (when the 30 days are over) and I have not fixed it yet. skipping 30 days is a bit premature, but re-adding it at this point doesn't= =20 make sense. fix it and re-add it, or don't re-add it at all. =2Dmike --nextPart2421075.fnsygSoQu3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAABAgAGBQJOiKt/AAoJEEFjO5/oN/WBcRsP/RPuTp89a4/Ph5htsSJZ/zbT mudL7NmiibhE56AkxcYfjBd1hhkqfeykcrzw1dsbwLqwqNBoWFJUYm58zumZD6rS KN0RINNz3Gk6gNM8Skbk+wXUlkhEp5TQvj7FmcJbdwubL0c/2Yu3KzFuoW7IFlVi VeJvgUgL+CMgOWHr8YGh9ZCe9BBQLgrp+3ZbWlVYjXSH0ridtix96zautbaMTRBN qV6oHLoOgYvxxvnGlXHg1aZ+u0vSFDZDSmeT6/HK7MXhiVGPXka/3Bg9LxcOuoZq wQM05hx46pT6Y1UauXGEWQGvqyUnXqpGP2I5ikdsJXt8Jq8EeWwmKmNfewxT3CW7 TQJNTln0qs6mj0vYCuuKjaCh6qZ7rgY4iZG1Ze48Tv/3ayqc7uzgXqKzSFlM8CIK UaD9aWMkIP8oNasbHgynYiMLTx6K+t036UOLo+XRM/BoVbVuCeson7bhD+nwF4RK sXUSRJpVesxQJhcBEPJ7xrt+h5XtQRIHXbJzZITrIz5edG8JLjZsFn4P3kiMrcSv NpjYJ1k/QjrY8wf3O5EAqN39C/gxuY5D2PJ6XaGW/3tXIWogNMA0xd2eEWsyIWi2 jGB1xK5M79/x0Z7Fa5pszaYMUTECupR6cldmZKMbVyhJbz9m1HT7W7UTQJ6UZdvs qzSDSCjYI9xJIUueEjyx =8cV/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart2421075.fnsygSoQu3--
