Yeah we can try to do that as well.

Yeah this looks much better than what we already have.

Right

Yeah this looks good.

Yeah we can do that separately, maybe I put more thought on that and
send my proposal.

Okay I will put more thought about the proposed error code and also
see what others have to say and if we have a consensus I can provide
