Oh, right. I can't English any more, sorry :)

The only thing that has an optional dependency on inspector client is
ironic. Their interaction is well covered by gate tests, so I'm pretty
confident we're not breaking what is working now.

Yeah, we (and especially I) should have done much better job managing our
schedule this cycle...

Having said that, I'm a bit worried that by marking the last release as
stable/liberty, we'll exclude majority of liberty features from the client.
Which might make this release somewhat useless for liberty downstream
consumers. I'm worried about downstream people (me included) having to
maintain their own stable/liberty based on the next release. What would you
advise we should do?

Thanks.
