Dear Sage devs,
There is consensus that no-one cares about oldish crystal pickles,
and it would make the inclusion of #8911 technically easier if we
could drop them.
Hence my question: what's the official procedure for updating the
pickle jar?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Nicolas

Hi!
Has this questions been resolved? Can we set a positive review on the
patch #8911 and update the pickle jar?
Cheers,
Anne
