<p class="MsoNormal">Hopkins is currently using 1.4.2 with container management, and is wondering whether 1.5 includes the ability to merge top_containers? We have a number of containers that converted to distinct containers when they should be the same container
(two box 252s, for example, when they are the same), and in order to correct the problem we have to manually change each instance affected. Before putting in a feature request, we through it prudent to ask whether there is a merge function in 1.5.<o:p></o:p></p>
