 Hey, welcome back, Bryce! :-)

 oliver still in charge of that?

 Oliver is still the chief sysadmin. Matt, Niels, Axel, and myself can set
 things up as well. The fastest way is probably to find someone on IRC. Or
 feel free to send me your key -- I don't have much time ATM, so it may
 take a bit.

 Replying to [comment:17 stippi]:
 > I just had the idea that the patch does not check the new size not to be
 negative (the current loop partition starts before the previous
 partition).

 This cannot happen, since the partitions are sorted by offset (hence the
 array name :-)). A check for `previousSize == 0` is in order, though.
