Re: [cft-dev] Neon aggregate build: which URL to use: /milestones vs /1.

[Martin Lippert <mlippert@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey!

I am all fine with the various approaches. Please continue to use the one that works best for you.

I would like to suggest to file a bug now to get commit rights to the aggregate build and start to push your aggregate build changes to that repo using via gerrit.
That way we can get the aggregate build to work fine already some time before M6. I would suggest to get all this done by the end of this week. That would be great.

Cheers,
-Martin
