[13:01:44 CST(-0600)] <apetro__> a fine idea. also added to rainy day list. That's easy enough to do that I'll probably offer a pull request this evening accomplishing that.
[13:02:11 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> Cool.
[13:02:22 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> Don't you have commit access?
[13:06:09 CST(-0600)] <apetro__> I do, but pull requests are a convenient way to afford review of a topic branch before it lands where it can do some damage. 
[13:06:24 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> Makes sense.
[13:06:51 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> Not sure this item warrants review though
[13:50:20 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> @apetro__ if it is any consolation, it is nice having a talented and not too knowledgeable person jump [back] into uPortal. The "newbies" find all the dumb little things others run that the rest of us don't run into because we've been doing it for months or longer. Fixing those dumb little things help make the project simpler and more stable for everyone
[13:51:15 CST(-0600)] <jwennmacher> Of course part of the problem is that the project is big enough, diverse enough, and ever changing so I think many of us keep running into areas where we are newbies.
[14:33:54 CST(-0600)] <apetro__> as long as we can keep the trip hazard load monotonically decreasing, I think we'll be in good shape.
