plan of action is to continue running everything on asf jenkins. in additional all developers (just like today) will be free to run the unit tests and as many of the dtests as possible against their local test branches in circleci. circleci offers a free OSS account with 4 containers. while it will be slow, it will run. additionally anyone who wants more speed is obviously free to upgrade their account.
does that plan resolve any concerns you have?
