Hi Nicolas,

Re: Tooling

I am suggesting that there can be a middle ground somewhere.
I am not fond of modern heavy web GUIs myself and fully understand
that more senior developers have advanced needs.

The custom tooling I am referring to is Patchwork.
A neat tool, but is this not also a web GUI?

The frustrations I have are somewhat centered around technical
iterations/patches being email driven.

GUIs have merit too and there can be value added even if it mostly
benefits some senior developers
but a lot of mid-term or short-term developers too. And if not the
GUI, CI/CD automations or linters that
can be leveraged to help. Everyone can make mistakes.

This is a fair point. But there are areas where knowledge is sparse
and this is a big project.
In these cases the best we have is subject matter experts, but if we
can't attract talent then I'm not sure what else we can get.

Thank you
