Hey Keiichi and Alex!

Yeah, I think for us it'll also be in the March/April timeline before we
can start looking at it again, there's quite a few loose ends when going
from v3 to v5 so it'll probably take a while to get it in shape and make
sure that all the comments from the drivers v2 are properly addressed.

I'm not 100% sure how to proceed but perhaps it makes sense to jointly
iterate on the driver sources together once the v5 is mostly agreed. Any
suggestions welcome.

Cheers,

		Matti
