Hello John,

I'd like to follow up on IRC conversation we had during "Android Common
Tree & Upstreaming" at LDS
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linux-linaro/+spec/linaro-kernel-o-android

May 11 10:49:08 <pfalcon>       jstultz_vm: what about "continuous merging" of 
linaro tree with android patches (that's exactly why I asked about maintaining 
a separate patch ;-) )
May 11 10:49:46 <jstultz_vm>    pfalcon:  so i can do that, but part of it is 
the time required to validate that the combination didn't break anything.
May 11 10:49:52 <jstultz_vm>    (which has happened in the past)
May 11 10:50:06 <jstultz_vm>    that load causes me to not update constantly..
May 11 10:50:58 <jstultz_vm>    i could just update it every week/few days. but 
i'm hesitant to push out a tree that breaks folks.

I agree that no immediate changes to the process should be done, we
should get 11.05 release out, hopefully with fixes for known
regressions or missing features. 

I'm just trying to wrap my mind on how we'll bootstrap Continuous
Integration in the next cycle, which is not far away. So, I just would
like to make sure that all teams involved are on the same line to make
CI work effectively, i.e. that kernel team is able to update Android
kernel regularly, infrastructure team has build system which produces
Android images reliably, and validation team has all hooks needed to
start testing them as soon as they are built.

So, I guess validation team would lead on CI start-up sequence, when
they have all needed infrastructure and testsuites integrated. In
particular, I'm waiting from them for details on how build
notifications should be communicated to the LAVA system.
