[tools] Ok to commit HARMONY-5927?
Hi all,
Since we're in stability phase, I'm writing to request committer support
for committing the patch supplied in HARMONY-5927. It is a patch for
policytool - since this tool is incomplete, I do not think this patch
will cause us any instability for our milestone build. I do not feel
that this patch needs to be included in the milestone build - i.e. we
can keep the milestone at r681495 unless other important patches are
applied - as it is part of an incomplete tool. I do feel, however, that
it would be useful for András' progress if we could apply this patch to
the repository now.
Any committers support/object to this patch being applied?
Regards,
Oliver

As you say, there is no need to include this in M7. However, if we end
up committing other changes for the M7 then there is no real harm in
including this change. So, I see no reason to hold it back.

Mark.
