I have one more change needed to bump the required fw version to 4.6.0 
in the low level driver (trival #define change).  I've tested 1.2.c with 
the new firmware and it looks good.  But I need to get the firmware 
version change upstream too, so maybe we can have one more week?  With 
the goal being -12 is final?

I prefer 1.2.5 over 1.2.c...(but I really prefer 1.2.1...why skip to .5?)
