Cyril,

thanks a lot for your work.

Unfortunately blender currently feels undermaintained in Debian as
gradually other duties began to consume most contributors' spare time.
Hmm, I, for one, already declared to let down the team, only to come
back every once in a while... :/

This makes your bug triage even more valuable, and even though I
haven't closely examined your suggestions I'd say as long as nobody
vetoes please go ahead and proceed as you seem fit. Well, from past
contributions I can see that you know how to work on the code, so
please feel free to send any further patches, as they will be greatly
appreciated. :)

Cheers,
Flo
