We wanted to change this record to unlimited uses, so we > wanted to have the entity change its value back to "null" in the database. > This change may be a bit of a hack; as it looks for "null" specifically in > the data load file and then replaces that on the newly loaded entity with > null to ensure backwards compatibility. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
