I don't see why not. The alternate version that has only the Samoa fix 
should give you a clear path forward in the short term. In the longer 
term the idea is to come up with a single-repository version that 
combines the two approaches, which should be a path forward for both of 
us. Among other things it will give us time to redesign how 'backzone' 
works, something that really can't be done before the end of the week.
