      • 13 March - Discussed how to merge SPEC-411. Ronan has 24+ patches in his meta-agl sandbox and meta-agl-demo sandbox
      • Merging the patches in gerrit one at a time will break master. We decided to have Ronan submit the patches to gerrit individually and review them there with the understanding that Ronan's sandbox builds. If there are comments on the patches that result in changes, Ronan will incorporate them into his sandbox and rebuild. Once all comments are complete and the sandbox builds, we will merge all of the patches into master without waiting for verification steps in CI. Walt will confirm the plan with Jan-Simon. Also will discuss further in the dev call tomorrow.
