Sorry for the long delay.  It all looks nice to me, and the ability of
have a transition with the two VMs side-by-side during the 2.1 series is
a convenient way to allow for further development of the new VM while
still allowing people to play with the other new features of 2.1.

That’s all I have to say now.  Go ahead!  :-)
