@GoeLin I've we get it in before ramp-down it still has the full rampdown-cycle (two months). So last notice is relative IMO. We've had fairly good testing on 21.0.5 for this and the follow up clears the issue causing the back-out. It would be good to have it in the January release as it fixes a class unloading issue in 21. I won't insist, though.
