sunset as in sunset clause, ok pretty awful but its a unique
placeholder. Yes, everyone that got in before the advocate bit got

It was a lot easier to do that, then to have fields dropping in and out
of view depending on a date or something else. Sure it is doable, but
seemed uncessarily complicated.

to my todo list.
BTW, I am not on debian-devel so I don't get replies about this.
