Now it's my time to rant at you, Peter. Brace yourself. Let me just say this, you don't get to have expectations and entitlements, if none of your '500 developers' are working fulltime to help the core. I think you've been in the room last week when Nico and Philip presented the numbers and the downward trend of who is doing the work in core; what are you doing to address that situation, given the resources your organization has?
We have a small handful of exhausted maintainers, I in particular have to squeeze my maintenance work between fixing various customer BSPs, and so it is on you to help us first. Otherwise, yes, I will say this: fix your scripts, and stop complaining. I have a large amount of manual recipe updates I need to do, because no one else wants to do it, and so I will not be arguing with you anymore.
