Great, thanks.

I don't either, actually.

In a some related vein.  I remember discussions to take EIEIO out of
CEDET, (i.e. use Emacs's built-in eieio for recent Emacsen, and
distribute a separate eieio package for people who want to use CEDET on
older Emacsen).

I'd welcome such a move.  IOW for me, the earlier the better.
