I never thought the case-sensitivity change would be trivial. So far, it
isn't going any more slowly than I expected, but we won't really know
how long it took until we are done.
I really wanted everyone to hold off until the downcasing+indenting was
finished because those changes affected nearly every line of code. Now
that that is over, we can be a little more open. One thing I am learning
is that asking motivated developers to wait is mostly counterproductive.
I would like to avoid any other serious changes in 5.9.2, but the
definition of "serious" is open to debate.
