This is available in multiple implementations (c++, Golang, PHP).

Hello @murgatroid99

Do you know when this could be taken up into a new release?
Thanks in advance!

Hello @murgatroid99 , is there anything that I can do to retrigger that test that timed out?

[murgatroid99]

Don't worry about that test job. Sorry for the delay handling this. I was out for an unexpectedly long time and I'm still getting caught up. This looks like a reasonable change to me.

Thx for picking it up! I'm looking forward to seeing it pop up in a new release.

(I hope everything is fine with you by the way.)

Hello @murgatroid99,
I was happy to see this morning that there was a new release yesterday.
Sadly enough, the changes of this MR aren't included in that release even though the changes are in master since last week.
Do you have any idea when these changes are going to be included in a release?

Thx in advance.

[murgatroid99]

The new release was a patch release. This is an API change so it will go out in the next minor release. I don't currently know when that will be, exactly.
