8 well, that's the idea :) But like I think it was Graham said in another
9 subthread of this, perl team's virtuals only go to stable if both (in
10 our case, there are usually only 2 possible sources for fulfillment)
11 deps are already stable, so really all you're doing is updating a
12 pointer reference. um. can i be more confusing? let's find out!

20 bah - that was me failing to finish the sentence that in my head
21 concluded as "than me." That and softserve machines aside, weeve and
22 gustovoz are pretty (in a positive sense) vocal about arch related
23 items, so they were the ones that came to mind when i threw in the
24 comment about arch's commenting.

26 Double bah. I think i've dug a good hole here. Let me get in it.
