Somewhat off-topic for this discussion, but is there any background on the "planned migration to VSTS" that I can go and read up on? I've seen the comments on the committers mailing list and it looks cool, but I got the impression it was an addition, rather than a migration. (If it is just an additional CI service we'll be using, then no worries - more is always better!)

To be a bit more specific, it's "planned assuming the testing of VSTS works out as we expect it to". :) IOW it isn't definite quite yet, but I am not expecting any blockers or people objecting, so in my head I'm optimistic that it's going to happen. (Any more discussion can be brought up on core-workflow.) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
