Hi,

I'll make a stronger statement - there was no warrant for announcing a
deprecation of open-ils.circ.title_hold.is_possible based on a full
description of the Launchpad discussion. I do see from the IRC meeting logs
that the problem wasn't caught during the meeting yesterday.

I have taken the step of unpublishing the blog post on evergreen-ils.org
pending our devising a corrected announcement. I will present such a draft
for review to this mailing list shortly.

In the future, I strongly believe that all public deprecation announcements
should be drafted and posted on evergreen-dev first, allowing a few
business days for review prior to publication.

Regards,

Galen
