<div dir="ltr" > </div>
<div dir="ltr" >The intention of this email is to get everyone on the same page so we are all aware of what is going on. As many of you are probably already aware, Horizon is moving toward the plugin model for all of its dashboards (including existing dashboards). This release cycle, we are aiming to move Sahara and Trove into their own repository with joint ownership of the respective project. I have spoken to interested parties, Craig, and David about it and we are all in agreement. Ideally, this should help speed up the review process for Trove, as you now own part of the code and ownership.</div>
<div dir="ltr" > </div>
<div dir="ltr" >Horizon still have some things we need to tidy up on our end to make sure we have full support for testing and localization for external plugins. We expect this to get resolve within the next few weeks. Work on excising the Trove code will begin this week so expect a patch for that soon! It would be ideal if we can merge existing Trove code before the excision happens. David has agreed to let these patches merge with one core vote if we have enough Trovers reviewing/reverifying them. So please help us help you.</div>

<div dir="ltr" >David and Craig, if I left anything else out, feel free add to this. Otherwise, have a good xmas everyone. Looking to working with you all in the coming weeks.</div>
