Mayakp.wiki moved this task from Incoming to Needs sign-off on the Movement-Insights board.
Ahoelzl added a project: Data-Engineering.
Ahoelzl set the point value for this task to 5.

@Ahoelzl / @JAllemandou: This open task has Unbreak Now! priority ("needs to be fixed immediately, setting anything else aside") for nearly a month with no updates but was moved to "Blocked/Paused" on a workboard. Are both Priority and Status correct? Thanks.

Mayakp.wiki lowered the priority of this task from Unbreak Now! to High.Oct 29 2024, 6:02 PM

I changed the priority to High since the task of extending the retention window was changed and that was unbreak now.
This task can be closed, however I see that DPE wants to keep it open until the change is reverted. Im ok with that.

This has been done,. Resolving.
