Hi all, Over the last few months, I've seen a lot of frustration and discussion around the shortcomings of our current CI. I'm also seeing debate over a few possible solutions; unfortunately, the debates tend not to resolve in a clear, decisive way, and we end up having the same debates repeatedly.
In my experience, this pattern often happens when there's not a shared understanding of the problems we're trying to solve--it's hard to agree on a solution if we don't agree on the problem. To help us reach consensus on the problems, I've started a document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1fToW48TO-B9T8VRi0_Z30fDJkjOrBisc-Fr8Epl50s4/edit# Please have a look and add/edit freely. I've tried to capture the arguments I've seen go by the mailing list, as well as some from my own experience, but if I've mischaracterized anything, please rectify. I know several people have been exploring some potential solutions, and I hope this document can help us begin to discuss their relative merits more objectively and practically. Neal
