[luacmartins]

Still waiting on the regression period for payment!

[mollfpr]

Unassigning myself and @thesahindia should be assigned for the PR review, thanks!

[thesahindia]

@sonialiap, it's ready for payment.

[luacmartins]

@sonialiap have we handled all payments for this issue? Can we close this?

[sonialiap]

To confirm payments to:
@gadhiyamanan - for reporting
@thesahindia - for PR review
@mollfpr - for PR review

Is this correct?

[luacmartins]

It should be:
@gadhiyamanan - for reporting
@thesahindia - for PR review

@mollfpr got assigned because I added the internal label too late and @thesahindia had already reviewed the PR.

[thesahindia]

Bump @sonialiap ^
