Re: [cdt-dev] editing register groups

[John Cortell <rat042@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

That's great, and I hope you're able to get to it. I'm just trying to
make sure we correctly prioritize the open parity issues. We're going to
have to come to a decision soon on the default debugger for Helios, and
we need to make sure we've properly categorized the bugs so we can make
the right call. Do you think this should be high-priority issue?
