If you're fine with reingesting your authority records, you can toss
the changes on anything 2.2+, I believe.  Certainly 2.4 is fine.  My
understanding is that there's general community consensus against
requiring any reingest within a release, so it probably won't get into
a 2.4.x release, but it'll work fine.

Is there a different way I can use to get the re-ingest done faster than this approach?
