Hello all, First, thank you all for the time in reviewing and providing feedback for the submitted blueprint for "refetch invalidation".
I've since incorporated said feedback and would like to get a final round of review. The blueprint can be found here: https://github.com/apache/trafficcontrol/pull/5910 Barring any major discrepancies, I intend to have this merged Tuesday, June 22.
