We > had a G+ Hangout chat about it, formed a nice outline document. I was only speaking about a document to explain the async options; but you mention rewriting ALL the thread docs. So now i don't know if you're thinking in a timeframe that removes the necessity for my patch or not. Can you please clarify if this was meant to be a "yes, we'll write an async options document", or "we plan to do lots of stuff here, so you can stop worrying completely"? Also, since i couldn't participate in the hangout, could i see the document? This is highly relevant to my interests and i would like to contribute. -- With regards, Christian WaldeThread Previous | Thread Next
