So I understand my dependency series being RFC prevents the PPS series from
dropping the RFC tag (correct me if I am wrong).

I plan to send out a non-RFC version of the dependency series next. So far
I think there will only be polishing changes. Due to testing being some
effort, I wanted to test and send it together with some other series.

But if this is blocking the PPS series, I think I could send out a non-RFC
version of the dependency series earlier (by the end of January?). Please
let me know what would align with the PPS series timeline.

Peter
