<p>Hi, <br>
<br>
unfortunately issues in our GitLab repo are not publicly visible
due to inability of GitLab to have them just read only for quest
users. Since we rely on them a lot for all sorts of things during
development and planning we have them tightly managed. So letting
people/bots open and comment issues would be a problem...<br>
<br>
If you need a handle for later to ask about, it is issue
`labs/bird#416`.<br>
<br>
This is something we talked about and would like to fix in the
future.<br>
If anybody has a suggestion how to have issues public and
read-only in self-hosted GitLab, we are very much open to hearing
them))<br>
<br>
Happy routing,<br>
David</p>

<p>Hi Just,<br>
<br>
I've briefly looked into the configuration code and it
indeed seems like current implementation demands
thread group for BFD to be named 'express'...<br>
<br>
This is definitely an oversight and we will fix that
once we have more time on our hands.<br>
In the meantime having the warning is probably your
best option)<br>
<br>
Thanks for spotting this and happy routing!<br>

<div>I've been testing migrating to bird3.
I preferred to redefine the default threading
configs so that everything is explicit, rather
than implicit. But, when I defined the ¬eress"
group, I got the following warning logged:</div>

<div>Rather than create create needless log lines, I
though I would fix that by creating my own custom
thread group instead, and use that for BFD.</div>
