Hi Till,

thank you for bringing this up. We really need to fix this.

Filing JIRAs with critical priority was how we tried to solve it in
the past, but obviously it did not work. There seems to be a mismatch
between assigned and actual priorities.

As a first step, I would volunteer to gather a list of tests, which
have failed in the last weeks and make sure that we have JIRAs for
them.

As a next step, we should coordinate how to resolve those issues
(maybe prioritized by failure frequency) to get master stable again.
