@krassowski what's the status of this? Is there anything we need to discuss to incorporate this?

[krassowski]

Sorry, I forgot to undraft once the other PRs got merged. I think we should give it a try.

@krassowski tests are failing with:

Can't check the full event log, though. Anything comes to mind?

[krassowski]

Back to draft. I need to make a PR to jupyterhub.

[krassowski]

jupyterhub/jupyterhub#4779 was merged, we will need to wait with this one for a new JupyterHub release

[krassowski]

With JupyterHub 5 in we should be able to make progress here.

By which I meant that this is ready to go into the next release (maybe not the upcoming one yet, but let's merge is ASAP after the release is out).

[marcelovilla]

Thanks @krassowski ! Now that the release is out, should we merge this for the next one?

[krassowski]

Yes, thank you for remembering about it!
