One other important point for the Ubuntu infrastructure is that the autopkgtests are a ratchet. IOW, if a test has *never* passed, its continued failure won't block promotion. It's only once a test starts passing and then regresses will it block. We have an "excuses" page that shows you what things look like. It could be prettied-up, but it provides lots of useful information. It also includes a retry button (the little three-arrow triangle) for people with the proper permissions. http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_excuses.html Cheers, -Barry
