    To avoid being punched out, I plan on waiting until about a year
    into the 2.7.x series before submitting patches (via the maintainers
    this time) to change out the accumulating speling erors. That
    will hopefully* minimize conflict with the initial surge of patches
    at the beginning and the stabilization period near the end.

    *hopefully used as a sentence adverb.
