    8. AGREED: 2137661 - AcceptedBlocker(Final) - Given the limited public information, we are unable to definitively determine whether this violates"The release must contain no known security bugs of 'important' or higher impact according to the Red Hat severity classification scale which cannot be satisfactorily resolved by a package update". We therefore are blocking out of an abundance of caution. (bcotton, 17:29:21)

    4. Upstream says "I'm pretty positive nothing about recurrent events has ever worked properly. There's a lot more that needs to be done to make it work reliably, and I'm considering how to do that, but yeah, it's just stupidly broken." (bcotton, 17:31:44)
