>From an admin perspective, this proposal throws up all kinds of red flags: - What problem are we trying to solve? - Release management is something that requires a good understanding of all parts of the code and the authority to make calls under pressure if issues come up during the release itself - The less change we can have to the release process the better from an operational perspective - Don't really want an engineer to have to learn all this stuff on the job as well as have other things to take care of (regular development responsibilities) - The idea of kiko/flacoste delegating somebody to be RM sounds fine, but it should be a 6-12 month stint, with a 1-3 Release overlap with the next person to take over the position. - Any change of timezones of the releases would need to be approved with the SAs Thanks, Tom > Details can be found here: > https://dev.launchpad.net/PolicyAndProcess/ReleaseManagerRotation > > Enjoy! > > _______________________________________________ > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
