7 The idea behind -infra temporary revoke power is to react to emergency
8 situations (as in "we must do something *now*"). Not sure a repeated QA
9 violation would fall into that "emergency" category.

11 The solution is rather to have a devrel liaison inside the QA team (or
12 the other way around). These are not closed groups. We do essentially
13 the same with infrastructure and security, we have liaisons and people
14 that are members of both groups, rather than saying security should have
15 wheel to do security audits and "emergency security fixes". Works a lot
16 better that way.
