Our hope is that the spec is merged way before and implementation to the very least is ready if not merged. The comments on the spec and merge proposal are currently implementation details specific so we were positive on this front.

>> 3. We cannot commit to granting a backport to this feature so, we ask the implementors to consider using the plug-ability and modularity of the taskflow library. You may consult developers who have already worked on adopting this library in Glance (Flavio, Sabari and Harsh). Deployers can then use those scripts and put them back in their Liberty deployments even if it's not in the standard tarball.
