We use https://waffle.io/ to take care of this.

Why not just load https://status.github.com/?
jonursenbach··on Lumen – A micro-framework by Laravel
Curious, but why don't your docs request that the install be done with Composer? Manually downloading a tarball isn't the best solution for managing an application dependency.

So because everyone did, that makes it okay?

I filed a support ticket the other day because I was curious, and this was the response I got:

``` Right now there are no plans to add this ability to this feature but I'm sure it's something we would look at as we go along. We really weren't sure this was a viable feature but enough people made noise so we developed it to help companies be more efficient when sending and calling the people they need to connect with. ```

How is that disheartening? The whole point of the Chromebook is to only use the web.
jonursenbach··on Berg is shutting down
Genuinely curious, but why print reminders like that when you can use a calendar? Or using something like Pushover for notifications when a download has finished.

Seems wasteful.
