Maybe. Ml discussion will bring some attention. 21:13:05 JRobinson__: agreed 21:13:05 sorry, Michal D. 21:13:10 ok, let's move on 21:13:17 #topic Speciality teams reports: 21:13:28 #info API: Anne Gentle 21:13:36 anne can't be here, so let me copypaste 21:13:44 Karen Bradshaw has been working on updates to the openstackdocstheme that would fix this bug: https://launchpad.net/bugs/1583623.
