Re: CEP-8 Update (v3)

 

I was reading the other bits of this and while I don't quite
understand it ( wouldn't it be great if "cough cough" I could be at
one of your sprints to sync with dev plans "cough cough" especially in
Taipei) ;-P

Seriously, what I do at least somewhat grok so far is the changes to
remove whitelists and define those in Units.

I looked over Sylvain's MP to do that for the client cert whitelist.
I took the liberty of going ahead and adding a story card to do
likewise for server, so I thought I'd ask if that is something we
should look at soon, or put off for a bit?

Cheers
Jeff

P.S. Really, the sidebar above was meant mostly as a joke, but I am
interested in keeping up with the dev roadmap and progress for
plainbox/checkbox since we are a direct consumer of / contributor to
that effort.
