This series does not apply for me (or the patchwork automation) on top of
v6.4-rc1, which was released prior to you sending this & contains the AIA
definitions this series relies on.
You note here that there is a *conflict* with Sunil's series, but what
you actually did, as far as I can tell, is base your series on top of
theirs?
If you're going to do that, at least point it out so that reviewers
don't have to figure out what your intention was :( Better yet, for the
sake of our automation in particular, don't do it at all.

Thanks,
Conor.
