It is way more serious if you consider my comment to be like driving |
| 9 |
a car when you haven't even fixed its brakes; there are different |
| 10 |
priorities involved here, one is much more important than the other. |

People that don't want to consider the full picture are welcome to call |
| 13 |
it silly, childish or non-serious; however, I'm serious about it and I |
| 14 |
hope the QA team (which that comment addresses) is serious as well. |

As for build failures; that boils down to either the maintainer fixing |
| 17 |
it as it is their problem, treecleaners cleaning it (but even they have |
| 18 |
a long backlog) or someone that is interested to fix it. But in no way |
| 19 |
it is QA's problem; as our task is Quality Assurance, which doesn't* |
| 20 |
imply fixing maintainer's problems (but does imply m-n / cleaning it). |

* We can try to help to some extent. |
