So far, only Kevin responded to this request for feedback since this mail 
was sent.  Feel free to respond here or privately, but I would like to hear 
from each of you soon.

I'll start nagging more privately if I don't hear back by Monday.

I'd really like to get this issue resolved so we can move on and put it 
behind us, thanks.
