Hello..

Maybe I should not reply, but curiosity got the better of me...

What were you trying to communicate? What is the main thought 
beneath phrasing?

>Surely we want v8.0 to work right, but many of the complaints I see have 
>already been fixed in v9.0 

This is why we have MFC, and CURRENT in managed in somehow close state
to STABLE prior to RELEASE.

? (I fail to see connection.)

You see flash drives as  EEPROM, ok but I again
fail to see connection.

Something changed after branching 8-STABLE from 8-CURRENT? I doubt it.
Ariff work is nonetheless excellent.

Why such choose of words? You want to recommend something
or rather not?

It's nice to have nice speakers.
