That's not quite how it works. Ise Jingu has two plots of land. They make a
new one while the other is still standing, so there is no temple-free
period of time.

Here, what we would do is SMTPQ (SMTP over QUIC) and use that change to
ditch all of the backward compatibility stuff. 8-bit clean, TLS by default,
etc.

I may have thought this over. :)

I still don't think this MUST needs to be there. Just delete it. But of
course other have opinions too.

thanks,
Rob
