We talked about this on IRC[1] this morning. In summary there are 
couple of sizable changes needed in the series which pushes the 
expected readiness of the patches to mid next week. As the series has 
OVO changes we feel this is too risky to merge close to RC1. So we 
agreed with Yongli to defer this feature to Xena.

Cheers,
