Re: [platform-releng-dev] Build I-200411091436 is unusable

Alright children it's now time to relax
and take a deep breath and remember that every component team has in the
past released a change that has broken the build and your complaints now
about how bad someone else's error affected you will come back to haunt
you when you are responsible for a future build breakage. 

Dorian's point about trying balance
forward progress with "process" is valid and the success of this
project relies on everyone's good judgement. And errors in judgement have
impact to the entire team that we must be aware of and we do need to have
a good integration build every week and minimize the pain required to achieve
enough stability so the entire development team can move to the integration
builds.

We are not going give the release engineering
team veto power over changes. It's your job to be a responsible adult and
be confident in your submissions by for example it might be a good idea
to actually run the code for a while before submitting, have JUnit tests
etc.  This is particularly important for core components where the
failures are often fatal but also important for leaf components where poorly
implemented features cause huge frustration.
