@doutriaux1 I have added a bunch more to your list.. I think a bunch of the open uvcdat issues may be replicated to the vcs repo.. So many of these may be close-able nearly straight away

[aashish24]

@doutriaux1 this is very useful. Are these added priority wise?

[doutriaux1]

@aashish24 I'm not sure about all the bugs @durack1 added. We should go through them at the telco today.
