There's a difference between "do you know its broke?" and "how is the
progress going?". I understood your email as "how is the progress
going?" as such, I did not see any recent comment made on the bug, nor
an email sent to us asking how the progress was going. I know you view
this as "I don't see it fixed, so that's not progress", but if you don't
think the hard work of the GNi folks of setting up some nice hardware
for this as part of the progress, then I'm sorry.

Anyways, if you would like, I can send you an update to the bug every
week until it gets completed. My guess (sparing any huge hurdles), is
that we can have the new bugs up by the end of this month. That's
including setting up the software, and testing it to make sure that the
issues that's been occurring have been addressed.

Cheers-
