The Cinder team is not going to approve this proposal this week, but we 
encourage you to continue working on it for Wallaby.

The spec was approved for Stein and then re-targeted to Train.  Until 
July 30, the last activity on the patch was April 1, 2019, so this has 
not been on the Cinder team's radar at all this development cycle.

Because the spec is outdated, it should be proposed for Wallaby so the 
current Cinder team can review it and assess how it fits into the 
current project plans.

I've already penciled you in for next week's midcycle so we can discuss 
this in more depth.  But I am against making a snap decision in the next 
two days.


cheers,
