I think that this can be discussed with the Release Team to see whether they would accept a fix for this bug (potentially after Feb 5th, if the patch is not ready 10 days before the freeze). Trading a known broken feature with a patch that might get the functionality back is not a big risk. > Maybe we can ask Helmut to provide a patch? > We can.
