If we do pursue this, I’d like to be able to see the ability to add the CCB to a separate area in CBFS, which will be far more useful in the long-run, in my opinion.
Unfortunately I'll be on a plane this Wednesday and won't be able to join this discussion. Would you mind if we move this to next meeting?
Hi Julius, I think the next meeting is going to be January 10th (at least that's my proposal). We can certainly discuss it then, but I'm not sure it's fair to Simon to put off the topic for another month.
If we do decide to do the meeting on December 27th, I think we could look at discussing it then, but in my opinion, 4 weeks is a long time to delay the discussion (unless of course, Simon is good with the delay, in which case, I have no objection.)
I'd definitely like your feedback on the topic. if you'd like, I can copy your comments from the gerrit commit into the meeting agenda to be discussed. Alternatively, you can add new comments to the agenda or maybe we can do some of the discussion on the mailing list.
I'd also be up for scheduling a meeting to discuss just this topic if people wanted to do that. I thought that last weeks discussion of the Arm64 proposal was quite useful. Let me know what you think, and I'll do my best to accommodate you.
Martin

Yeah, if you want this resolved urgently and we're at a standstill with the discussion on Gerrit, that would probably be the best option. I should be free to meet on any of the remaining work days until Christmas. (I'll actually be taking the same flight back on Jan 10th so I'm going to miss that meeting as well, sorry, dates just happened to fall like that unfortunately.)
