As I'll be afk due to work-related, I won't be driving this release.

Attachment: [config] do it

Kicking even before you review, but I'll note the release config change is from our needed 2.17beta1 change we hit, while we needed to revert that change when we did 2.16.x

Hey Jens,

I was going to write up the website changes but I'm much too tired now, the release is sitting on mirrors and is ready to go out the door, when you get a chance can you please write (and push) the website changes and then once those are done ewong or I can push the update snippets for this.

I don't trust my own mind at the moment to write (good) changes even if I omit the "what changed" details.

Thank You!

OK done with my part. It first seemed like I wouldn't find anything noteworthy again but then: two bugs even! :-)
