I concurr that we should improve upon that in the future. However I don't 
think there's much harm in having it ommitted it this time. There weren't 
that many string changes and it's essentially a very rought tech preview 
intended for early testing anyway, so let distros test in advance doesn't 
make that much sense (IMO).

Best regards,
Heiko
