Just so I understand correctly - the 802.1Qbg standard requires using a
VLAN, but the vepa implementation doesn't have that restriction, so it
is still okay for someone using a vepa switch to not use a VLAN. Correct?

release...)

I don't know if it's a commit trigger (instant) or just an hourly cron
job, but in my experience, all doc edits do show up online within an
hour of the git push.

Yes it's updated directly from git + buid on an hourly cron job :-)
