Great to hear that - it is similar for us and preferred to do it early (for 20.04) on the Ubuntu side. I even found a "volunteer" that wanted to look into it (Rafael on CC) on our side. He might give it a look in the same time-scope of "coming weeks/months". All I wanted was to avoid duplicate work, we will submit an MR if we start earlier than you. And vice versa you could push a branch if you have started first. Eventually it doesn't matter who starts it, it will be a benefit in test and review to do it together. > > I haven't seen an open bug/discussion in [3] yet not an 0.8.x branch > > in [4] so I thought I should open a bug to check with you if there is > > anything already going on behind the covers - or - even if it isn't > > maybe you could state your plans on timing and opinions of the > > adoption for the new version. > > > > Thank you for reaching out.
