Due to team sprint prioritization, we are not always able to review community pull requests in a timely fashion. We ask that you file an issue so that we can work the fix into the work that our team is already doing. The best way to make sure that you don't waste your time is to file an Issue before beginning work on the code to verify if the team will have bandwidth to review and that it fits into a product prioritization (these are typically every 1 or 2 weeks).
We track tasks separately from the publicly visible GitHub Issues in this repository to ensure that sensitive PHI/PII doesn't wind up in the wrong place. We strive to work in the open as much as possible, but the team has decided that doing this keeps folks safer and allows us to keep the code itself open to all.
With this said, please still file Issues for public contributions and reporting bugs. We still look here. 😄
