Hi!

I came across the following point in release notes of 1.5 version:

"The allocation of TaskManagers with multiple slots is not fully supported yet."

Does this mean the support for it will come as a patch for 1.5? or will it be in the next stable release?

If I use legacy mode, will that support multiple slots per TaskManager?, or is it only the deployment change that will get affected?
