Yes I did some such for 0.9.24 and 0.9.25 but plan not to do for 0.9.26.

Such feel informed that I want to pass that bits of "quality control" over
to the community in the believe that with increasing abilities of the mob
to maintain responsibility for the whole (as observed elsewhere nowadays)
good results are possible also for this little project. ;)

In principle I have no problem with rewritten history either.  After all
all true history was rewritten at some point.  That is if someone wants to
filter and cleaned up the "mob" branch, go ahead.  If something goes wrong,
we have still the original mob version in current master.
