Right, that's what I was implying, although my sentence structure was
probably bad.

When I last looked at the problem in March, in the existing 'really
are leaves' categories there were ... 680 ports.  With the repocopies,
japanese would add another 430 today.  So, about 10% in all, and
that's why I didn't really push for it at the time.
