[20:30:56] <wm-bb>	 <David> Okay, I've just done that 😊 (and it is now about 3 days later than the request was posted here; didn't have a chance to catch up on telegram on Friday). (re @Al: Actually, I added a new Test case to Z801 this morning. I’ll ask David to connect Z31006 and we’ll see what happens.)
[20:44:30] <wm-bb>	 <David> Update on these 2 patches: they did get deployed on January 7, but unfortunately (1) needs more work on comparing statements that have qualifiers and/or references in them; will get to this ASAP. (Comparison of statements with empty lists of qualifiers and references is working fine.) Re: (2), thanks for the quick attention to broken tests, as discussed in T411947, Al

[20:59:16] <wm-bb>	 <Al> Thank you! It wasn’t urgent, just synchronicity… (re @David: Okay, I've just done that 😊 (and it is now about 3 days later than the request was posted here; didn't have a chance to catch up...)
[21:12:50] <wm-bb>	 <u99of9> David has been quite responsive to direct requests, usually on Telegram. But we have lots of other things to talk to him about, so sending requests for test connection seems banal. There are *many* unconnected tests, and I would hate to have to ask staff for them one by one. My first attempt at a bulk request was at

[21:16:10] <wm-bb>	 <u99of9> I agree with Al that this is low risk. Personally, my ideal for built-in functions would be to allow any functioneer to connect or disconnect. (re @Al: Yes. Maybe that’s why he filed the ticket 😏 So long as we’re only talking about tests for built-ins, I don’t see any drawbacks. ...)
[21:21:26] <wm-bb>	 <u99of9> But if test connection permission is technically bound to all editing of all built in objects, then I see why James may consider it scary. In that case I think there are half a dozen of us who have the experience required not to mess up much more than staff do 😜. So maybe the planned function maintainer right could be activated? (re @u99of9: I agree with Al that this
[21:21:26] <wm-bb>	 is low ri <clipped message>

[21:26:23] <wm-bb>	 <Al> They are separate rights according to [[Special:ListGroupRights]]. (re @u99of9: But if test connection permission is technically bound to all editing of all built in objects, then I see why James may consider...)
[21:32:31] <wm-bb>	 <u99of9> Which specific one would allow it? I guess (wikilambda-edit-builtin-function) which is broad. (re @Al: They are not separate rights according to [[Special:ListGroupRights]].)
[21:38:43] <wm-bb>	 <Al> …or (`wikilambda-edit-predefined), `which is broader 🤷‍♂️ (re @u99of9: Which specific one would allow it? I guess (wikilambda-edit-builtin-function) which is broad.)
