Finally I started feeling better health-wise, so we travelled to Argentina to visit family. Therefore, I’ll be taking Mon-Wed off the week of the 23th and also Mon-Wed the week of the 30th. I will try to at least catch up with security reports and ticket triaging, unsure if I’ll be able to do any PR reviews… Will try though!
