Not unanimous is putting it mildly. Who was in favour of adding SMS to 3.0 so late during a release cycle? BibLibre and TTLLP members have been against, someone from Cilea reported it causing problems, but I've not noticed other koha group members commenting: Calyx? L2C2? Katipo? The original message stated pretty clearly that they wouldn't be applied as-is, then "essentially these same patches" were submitted and apparently applied without question. That stung. Please be clearer what is a general development and what is being suggested for application to the freezing release version. It was posted a few days after the other 3.2 RFCs and looked clearly to mix enhancements with bugfixes, so hopefully it's clear why some people would have put it in the wrong mail queue. The SMS enhancement seemed like the import-borrowers-plus enhancement http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2287 - unless there's a loud call for it to appear in 3.0.0, I don't intend to submit it yet, and that doesn't even add any new dependencies. It's simply too late.
