I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other on whether we
should remove VFI this release cycle, but I thought the reason why
there was pressure to do that was because we will otherwise need to
make changes to Hot Standby to cope with VFI. Or in other words, I
thought that in order to wrap a release we would need to do one of (1)
remove VFI and (2) fix HS to cope with VFI, and maybe there was a
theory that the former was easier than the latter. But it's possible
I may have totally misunderstood the situation. What is your thought
on how to handle this?
