Hi Dirk,

Michael and I need to know exactly what changes you still need to be
committed for the VxWorks 6.3 and/or 6.7 builds that are not already in
our repositories. Posting the output from 'git diff' rather than just a
description like this is much better, it ensures we don't miss anything.
If you can do that TODAY we'd appreciate it, we're wanting to tag the
-rc1 release, and we'd prefer to have your changes included if possible.

Thanks,

- Andrew
