Hello, I've done some fixes in HEAD some time ago, that are also present in 11. Those have been tested by Karl, and seem to solve the situation (or at least the skew is much smaller with those). Sadly migration in both 11 and HEAD is currently broken due to other issues, so you cannot test it at the moment. Once that's solved I will ping you so that you can test it. Roger.
