Hi Simon,
I read your initial comments, and I immediately realized I made a mistake. I
had initially submitted my series on a local branch, but my mailing client
didn't send out anything past the cover letter. (I think Patman had CC'd too
many people, and my mailer was preventing spam) When you first responded, I
then rushed out the patch again, trimming down what Patman was trying to do. I
was on a different branch and had made a couple small efforts towards
refactoring. On that branch, I had intended to submit commits A, B, and C, but
instead, sent you C, D, and E.
Commit A will have the tests I added to the test runner. Commit B will have some
of the missing documentation you had mentioned. And you responded favorably to
Commit D.
I will submit a new patch series with the correct commits (A, B, C, and D), with
modifications based on your review comments. I will not be pursuing a larger
refactor at this time.
Thank you, and I apologize for any confusion I may have caused.
