I know - but given the circumnstances that we all are aware of, it's no
big deal IMHO.

Well, a few did stepped forward, but I totally stalled on TFNR etc.

We really should try getting that boat in the water though and I think
we simply need to figure out how we "put PI instances into the image
using the update stream". If we just solve that (should be easy, someone
just have to do it) then we can start pumping out some PIs and we can
easily integrate that with SM and BFAV.

If noone else does this I will. Now, how did this darn PI thingy work
now again... ;)
