More thought there would always be valuable. If it is indeed low-severity, the it's okay to merge it in 044 if you like it and are confident in it. But please be careful: the code is subtle." 17:27:32 ah right 17:27:37 i havent reached there 17:27:55 private issue is #40080 17:28:12 ya 17:30:29 we can do another look at these tickets during this week 17:30:52 dgoulet: do u know stuff about canonical connections dgoulet? 17:30:52 ok 17:30:56 because that's the name of the game 17:31:18 asn: yeah yeah I get the problem 17:31:28 I just read the whole thing 17:31:30 ah nice 17:31:44 i mean if u undersand the roger/nick discussion you already more ahead than me 17:32:09 I can try to shime in with my opinion on the severity, might be more noise though... 17:32:40 ack 17:32:52 i think if we can resolve the severity thing we can move forward 17:33:14 ok 17:33:48 ok so i guess that's it for today? 17:33:50 I'll go over 044-should/must tickets this week and see how I can help there so we can get 044 going soon 17:33:53 * dgoulet is good 17:33:58 ack 17:34:05 let's be in contact! 17:34:07 wb people :) 17:35:30 yep 17:35:37 #endmeeting
