Hi, * Helmut Grohne <hel...@subdivi.de> [2023-08-25 13:40]:
You see that this goes into very much detail and having the CTTE decide upon the precise way of lifting this seems suboptimal. That would amount to micro-managing the transition. In effect, the most sensible way I see forward is trusting our developers to the right things by formally lifting the moratorium entirely and still asking them to be careful about what they do. Then we could have a living document (not authored by CTTE) describing what careful means precisely. With dumat being in operation as a detection mechanism (though not yet performing unsupervised RC bug filings), we've got the means to see what goes wrong at least.Does this make sense to you? Do you have other thoughts on how to move forward on the CTTE side?
Practically, lifting the moratorium means that the CTTE relinquishes control of the /usr-merge transition to whoever drives the transition, i.e., maintains that living document and thereby makes decisions on how to proceed. Who is this going to be? Do you, Helmut, feel comfortable as driver? Do you prefer if the Release Team takes over with you in an advisory role? If you continue as main driver, should the DPL formally delegate that role somehow? I think these are questions we need answered, because it would be advisable to have someone with clearly defined responsibilities at the wheel for the transition. Otherwise, we risk stale-mating ourselves with endless debates on how to finish the transition "properly".
