Re: [iot-pmc] [CQ 8709] libuv Version: 0.11.29
|
Hello Roger,
it is not unfriendly at all. I am more worried that, based on the fact
that I am no native speaker, write "unfriendly" E-Mail. Which is not my
intention!
I can understand that dilemma. But you pretty much summed it all up. So
you need a normal CQ.
Since you already uploaded the code to IPzilla, I would ask you to get
in contact with Sharon and ask her if you can change the CQ, or if you
need to open another one. I think it is best if she answers that question.
But from a point of a discussion about a 3rd party dependency we come to
the conclusion that it is neither a works with nor a pre-requisite
dependency.
Is that correct?
