alot of F-13 and F-14 can be done in parallel, if we can get F-13 done in the 
next 3 months i think its worth it.  We will likely release F-12 sparc when 
F-13 primary is released. ideally they happen at the same time.

sure but as a community if there are people with the hardware who want 
something newer we can provide it.  I guess we can see if there is any demand
