[Tubetk-developers] ParameterSerializer classes are on Gerrit

[Matt McCormick]

That sounds like a great idea.  Currenty, a class and all its
component classes get serialized.  We could also possibly make a class
that, given a class at the tip of a pipeline, would travel the
pipeline and also serialize all the inputs.

Thanks,
Matt
