I agree.

But this is not a "blocker" and we *need* to get this release out asap.
I would like to do so once James' UA1 fixes are in, unless there are
other blockers.

The Les Houches proceedings deadline is 5th March, and I certainly
expected us to have a release before that, hence the Rivet manual is
cited there! (Indeed, I expected to release late Dec/early Jan!) Can we
realistically make a release on that timescale? It doesn't have to be
100% perfect -- such a thing is not known -- but as far as I know there
is no killer problem that should stop us from tagging and tarring...
