Hi

Please, would it be possible to wait a few days before pushing to 
catalog the first packages including this flag ?

I would like to check it is not going to break version parsing in 
statistics tools. Let say until the opening of the Wintercamp.

Committing build descriptions in GAR using this flag may also create 
side effects on QA and uWatch results. I would like to add this flags to 
unit testing.

Since databases are still synchronized manually until next week, there 
will be no problem, you can commit stuff using this flag.

cheers
W.
