I don't see a problem with doing something like that if its within |
| 19 |
reason. I know this has made infra look terrible with how long its been |
| 20 |
drawn out. Its been a failure on many different levels in the chain. I |
| 21 |
admit that I'm not happy about it either and feel rather embarrassed |
| 22 |
about it. |

I was planning on eventually sending an email asking the devs what they |
| 25 |
want so we (infra) have a better idea. Sometimes its hard to get a feel |
| 26 |
for what developers need without them directly contacting us. Anyways, |
| 27 |
thats for another time (hopefully soon). |
