Anyway, those numbers are JFTR and out of curiosity. I'm not going to engage in severity pingpong, but I'd like to note that intermittent build failures used to be 'important' for a long time until recently a few people started to treat them as 'serious'. And now let's have a look what's actually going on with these tests ... Cheers, gregor -- .''`.
