Discussion
Milestone 2
Due next Monday if we keep the 1-month schedule. Freeze period (= nightly builds, no new features) should be only 2-3 days.- Always on the 20th of the month (or the next working day)
- Adriaan will create a publicly editable google doc where committers can list their contributions for every milestone.
- There should be some short release notes (number / list of fixed tickets, new features)
UnTyper
Why do we need this?Eugene will try resetAllAttrs instead of UnTyper in hopes of it preserving the required type information
