- The 'inbound was closed for 15.3068% of the total time due to "bustage"' number is an underestimate, in one sense. When inbound is closed at 10am California time, it's a lot more inconvenient to developers than when it's busted at midnight California time. More than 3x, according to http://oduinn.com/images/2013/blog_2013_02_pushes_per_hour.png.
See my "note 3" under the "Inbound uptime" section. I used exactly that graph to weight the inbound downtime and there wasn't a significant difference.
- Getting agreement on a significant process change is really difficult. Is it possible to set up a repo where a few people can volunteer to try Kats' approach for a couple of weeks? That would provide invaluable experience and data.
Yeah, there are plans afoot to try this, pending sheriff approval. Cheers, kats _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
