Yes, indeed. > Job doesn't provide an ordering mechanism, but BranchJob provides > arbitrary metadata via the JSON field, so you can plug one in if you want. I'd just say that here the JSON field is a bit of a red herring; I very much expect that we'll want to do the ordering in database queries, and that means having the data in a place that the database can easily see it. But that's OK, I think, we have schema patches for a reason :) Cheers, mwh _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : launchpad-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
