Some of the scripts used are hosted in several public repositories (like |
| 19 |
the qa-scripts). Almost all of the others are part of the infra |
| 20 |
configuration repositories. |
| 21 |
We've shared some of the scripts already and I'm sure all of us would |
| 22 |
prefer to share all the others - we just need to go over them and make |
| 23 |
sure we split any authentication out of them. |

Rich, please make an effort to ask the correct people before making such |
| 31 |
comments that can be misread as meaning that the RelEng team is building |
| 32 |
stages "in secret" or questioning how anyone can be certain about what is |
| 33 |
built. |
| 34 |
Both the catalyst repository[1] containing catalyst code and the releng |
| 35 |
repository[2] containing both the official stages and helper scripts used |
| 36 |
for stage building are available through gogo. |
