This isn't as simple as you'd think. The x86 worker will be dropped when maintenance comes around to that point on the autobuilder, it is in the queue. The ARM worker worries me a lot more. The 1804 worker is currently stable but I do worry a bit what will happen when we change the OS on that machine. In theory it should be fine and it could well be but that hardware was very painful in the past. I appreciate the idealist "lets drop it ASAP" but there are other things to consider. Do we want to lose Michael Halstead and myself for a couple of weeks trying to fix a new OS on it? Do we want to lose a third of our ARM build power? Cheers, Richard
