well, if you put it like this, we already have it right? except we run every 24 
hours, not
4-6. I'm leery to bump our openstack csit jobs to a quicker cadence because 
each job takes
~90m (and it's growing). And we have a significant number of them. Our infra is 
sometimes
pretty saturated as it is. Maybe we can pick just one of these jobs to run at a 
higher frequency.
That would at least give us a shorter time frame to search for patches, when we 
get a
regression.

we aren't totally stable enough yet, imho. We are very close though.

<devils advocate>
however convincing these dependent projects to stop merging is asking a lot. 
Who says
md-sal or controller gives a hoot about the "cloud" stuff working for 
opendaylight. maybe
other ODL projects are still working fine and the assumption is our cloud 
projects are the
projects that need to fix themselves, while everyone else can continue to do 
work.

this would be super cool.

our poor man's dashboard is just the regular jenkins job landing page. We need 
to get
things coming back blue on a consistent basis first, because every time I look 
it's
mostly red and yellow.
