I think the best course of action is for you to push your branches as
soon as it is convenient. We're not ready here, and I can't promise any
specific date when we might be ready.

So unless you've heard something from Jann or Felix that would caution
you to sit on this for a bit longer, I think it's time to go public.

I'll finish the MITRE paperwork tomorrow.
