[jannyHou]

We have an unfinished story from last month:

• (5 story points) [Spike] How to do relation traversal #1952

---

Now the committed story points is 31 + 7(2 slipped stories from last month) + 2 bugs(not estimated)

Considering people will be on vacation(1-2 weeks) during Xmas, I am afraid the committed stories is more than we could finish.

Shall we move some stories to the stretch goals? I would suggest move these 2:

• model constraint spike [Spike] Reference a Model/type and add additional constraints #2082
• lb4 relations referential integrity lb4 relations referential integrity for hasMany/belongsTo #1718

cc @strongloop/sq-lb-apex @bajtos @raymondfeng thought?

Thanks @jannyHou for looking into this. With the content type blog just done (ready to be published next week) and the ux in cli pr also merged, how are we doing if we keep it unchanged?

[jannyHou]

@dhmlau Great. Then our committed story points would be 38 + unestimated bugs

Closing this as it's Jan now. Moving outstanding items to Jan milestone.
