Activity Digest: November 2016
This is an ongoing series of activity reports, published monthly, to highlight activity in our projects. Here is what happened in November 2016. This is not a complete list of all activity, just work that results in a non-trivial change. For a full list, see the git history of all the projects.
Summary
The focus has been on migrating code back to libshared.git, and in turn making use of that code.
This not only shrinks the size of the projects, but means that bug fixes in libshared.git benefit all projects, and reduces effort.
The Taskserver codebase is being cleaned up in preparation for a major fix and test cycle coming up.
