Please don't misunderstand what I am saying.
I am not making demands.
I am just trying to understand how to proceed. The real world situation 
I am in with equipment deliveries means I need to be building and 
testing as quickly as the openafs community and the gatekeepers feel 
comfortable releasing code.
I am sorry if I offended any one I didn't mean to.
I do believe that Apple needs to know that OpenAFS is very important to 
all of us and to give the openafs community the resources and help they 
need.  The only way I know to help Apple understand this is to talk 
about my needs openly, file bugs, and contribute what little resources I 
have in testing.

Thanks for the clarification on the patch I can wait for next release 
for more testing.
