You are invited :)

Off-Topic:
Today I changed to master builds and started fixing the patch-fuzz-thingy.

* Thanks for doing that
* This is a perfect advertisement for devtool - have not yet used
before. Am not sure if I am going to use that for daily recipe
handling but for this task it is VERY helpful. Together with with git
add -p the diff can be kept readable. There are two 'bugs' I found:

1. If I am not mistaken it creates wrong file path when using
'patchdir' - sorry but I forgot where it was
2. An interesting case is mariadb-native/fix-cmake-module-path.patch
(current meta-openembedded master / meta-oe): Although the patch moves
just one line, devtool creates a heavy monster diff - have no idea why
