At present there is no commitment to incorporate any code, so there is no timeframe. There are no current committers with the bandwidth to be the maintainer or the subject matter exertise to take it on. If/when that changes, then we would incorporate it into the planning process. The only real impact at the moment is that we obviously are no longer contemplating starting such a project from scratch.

That's the same thing I've told anybody and everybody who has asked, including the Board just last month.
