Personally I also think that we should refer people to Jira for this information. We already have an authoritative version of this list (Jira) and I generally dislike duplication.
But I am just trying to manage different perspectives. A few people raised points that relying on Jira might not be the best for a few reasons. So trying to reach a consensus that works for everyone. I just know that an ~ 400Kb text file for this purpose is a bit of overkill no matter what side of the fence people fall :) On Wed, May 27, 2015 at 9:01 PM, Brett Meyer <brme...@redhat.com> wrote: > +1 from me.
