This would happen if we decide to rerun the conversion one last time to fix some showstopper that surfaces during testing. So other than throw-away experiments, best bet is to relax, and don't depend on the GitHub public repos until we post a message saying we are totally live.<br> <br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Useful questions, Thanks!<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">--Beman<br></div></div>
