That would already be handled by

which is much more intuitive than ;4

Yes.  If you (anybody) want GLISS to start sooner, dealing with
information only in the regtests would be a good start, since it

for lots of people to work on it in parallel.

No.  If GLISS hasn't started yet, then there's no point sending
emails to that list.
