Hello Mani,

I'm truly sorry. Recently, due to work commitments, I haven't had any 
spare time. I plan to handle this series after v7.3-rc1 is released. 
Thank you very much for your reply. I will carefully consider the 
subsequent review comments regarding Sashiko. Thank you again.


Best regards,
Hans
