Hi Wadeck

We can monitor this in the short term.
My concern would be around responsiveness and turn around time.

RPU hosting requests already can take a fair amount of time if there’s a
few at a time

 It already takes a long time to get some of the UI pull requests in. As
long as the security team are in early and actively reviewing, (and that
means looking at all the pull requests currently active) too then fine.

We already have a big backlog of pull requests that we were asked to hold
off on the last few weeks due to the security release, so if these could be
looked at ASAP then that would be great.

Let’s add this as an agenda item for the next UX sig meeting to review how
it’s going

Thanks
Tim
