Ah yes - April 1 :-). Had actually forgotten about that. Fun times :-).

I've actually been able to find a decent warm body that understands the
problems, has taken the suggested fixes and is willing to listen.

Initially, all fixes had been scheduled for 17.2 However, he is, since
the 18th of this month, working on committing the fixes to all earlier
throttles that are still open for commit, which includes a number of
16.x releases.

I also asked if he can back-port those fixes to the Cisco 7200 train -
so 15.2(S4)8 - and he's graciously looking into that. We use a couple of
those as looking glasses around the world (although we are moving to
CSR1000v now for that), but I know that a handful of networks are still
running that platform in production, and we also use it for lab
workshops and such. So getting that fixed would be most helpful.

Mark.
