On the minus side, we're still ahead of trunk whereas where we'd ideally like to be is behind trunk using a maintenance branch, but perhaps we'll get there for our next update (which could be to a 1-4-x branch or something).

I don't think any of these should be disruptive or controversial, but if you see something in an issue linked to EVALSYS-765 which you think would be problematic for your institution, please add a comment to the relevant issue.
