Re: [PATCH] Correct bus junction behavior

 

This patch is essential for my connectivity work (but that's not a V5
thing...)
It would be quite easy for me to implement the color thing as part of the
connectivity changes (since the junction would be able to know if it was
connected to buses or not)
