As far as this "explicitly acknowledging", I'd note that not long ago I edited https://wiki.mozilla.org/Tree_Rules/Inbound to reflect what I think represented rough consensus from a previous discussion on this topic, by adding the parenthetical in the following item: # Inbound is no replacement for Try. You still need to test your # patches before pushing. (This doesn't mean that you need an # all-platforms try run for every patch. But it does mean that # you should do enough testing so that you rarely cause red or # orange on mozilla-inbound. But breaking it rarely is ok. Never # missing a plane means you're spending too much time in # airports; never breaking the tree means you're running too many # tests before landing.) Probably too wordy, but I didn't see a good way to shorten. I'd be happy for it to be more explicit regarding what you said, but when I wrote it, I didn't feel like it represented our consensus. -David -- 𝄞 L.
