I have heard from a number of projects, both on this list and elsewhere that they are making the updates. I have not submitted these changes today and propose that I do them at the beginning of the 2022-06 release cycle (mid-March). At that time I will recheck to make sure I am not disabling

[cross-project-issues-dev] Critical projects?

2022-01-14 Thread Scott Lewis

Hi Alexander, Sorry that you got caught in the crossfire on this change - the realization that Passage was depending (unintentionally) on a workaround I put in last year for Mylyn made me revisit to see if the cost of fixing Mylyn this way was having unintended consequences. After a year instead
