The Secretary responded on Tuesday: "> i still don't believe that UI related issues are a good enough reason to > exclude instruments. No indeed they are not. Actually there is a much bigger change waiting: Mo's restructured instrument tree. We really need to get this implemented. I'd suggest to load it onto test after the next server update. Then we should test it and then move it over to the main server. The vacuum cleaner can be added to the test tree, be discussed to death, and then finally make it to the main server, too, OK :-) BTW what is it instrument/other or instrument/wind/other?
