While my memory is no longer fresh on it, I can definitely be pinged to help with it, if problems appear. > > So, the primary question here is: do folks have a problem with adding > twisted here? We're holding off on Ironic changes that depend on this > until this discussion has happened, but aren't reverting the g-r change > until we decide one way or another. > > // jim > > [1] https://review.openstack.org/#/c/220268/ > > __________________________________________________________________________ > OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) > Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe > http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev > -- -- -- Dmitry Tantsur --
