Hello Admins,
The build service is ready for the next phase, and we want to get some early users to test it and give early feedback!
This next step is going to start this Monday, when around 100 tool maintainers will kindly receive an email asking them to try and test the service.
The full list will be made available in the task [1]
This is very different from what I was told at the Toolforge Council meeting last week. My impression was that you'd be reaching to a handful of maintainers for tools we know that can be migrated to the currently very "Python web service without any database migrations or other complications" centric system. How will those maintainers be selected?
You can read a draft of the email here[2]
Please clarify in the email which features are actually available today and which are not. Right now the draft gives an impression that push to deploy is currently supported, which is not true.
There's still many things to figure out, and many more will show up during this phase, your help and input will be critical in shaping this service.
This is unfortunately not the impression I have about this project. Most of the decision-making and coordination still seems to happen in private and undocumented spaces despite my multiple requests to get involved in those conversations.
