Thanks - again that was super helpful. I took the time to lay it out like a towel what was there, what looks to be broken when we migrated to the ASF infra and no you wont' go thru it? There are some obvious spots for you to say something or point to projects you like, but you just continue to roll your eyes. I didn't push for or want this move to the ASF infra - but I'm still trying to help here.
