[Coke] I have in the past assigned things to raiph because he tends to dump so much text on a ticket without giving a PR. 19:04
If you have a PR brewing for something assigned to him, just submit it, no worries from me.

argh. I'm still having trouble with branches. I definitely made two separate branches for those two different PRs, but somehow both of the commits showed up on the second PR. I'll have to figure out what I did that sent the first commit to both branches instead of just to the one I intended. 02:27
But hey, at least I'm a lot better at this stuff than I was six months ago 02:28

[Coke] added some comments on wayland76's PR, but didn't do a holistic readthrough. (and i suspect that a fraction of this PR is moving already written content around, yes? So you might get some comments about the original content as well as the new stuff 19:28
wayland76 [Coke]: Yes, 90% of it is moving stuff around. 22:29
[Coke]: do you mind if we keep this PR focussed on the existing changes, and not rewriting things that are just moving things around? What I'm worried about is that this will again get pushed on to the back burner by one of us, and then there will be more moerge conflicts to overcome, and it could take ... a long time. Really all I'm asking is permission to say "Let's not worry about that now" if it's sub-optimal, but a) pre-existing, and b) not 23:07
actually wrong. 23:08
^^ I've put the same question on the ticket. So you can ignore this. 23:16
