lol this one I'm more than happy to rubber stamp but maybe give @calvinleng-science a chance to review if he wants?

@calvinleng-science I don't think this affects you actually; this is a Nexus thing. The headstages don't use this since the synapse apps aren't a client (the Apps SDK is separate). |
The build was failing because spike_binner.pb.h couldn't be generated - the submodule was pointing to v2.0.0 which predates the spike_binner.proto addition.
