Unless you have specific suggestions I'm happy to take tham as they
are. 

Eddie, I've queued up 01-19 ready to be committed.  Patch 20 still has
some MSRs that are passed through directly from the host, which I think
needs to be fixed.  I'd prefer just a new patch 20 rather than a new
drop of the whole series next time, to save me having to re-check
01-19.

Cheers,

Tim.
