I think we all want to unblock the release, the question is how, because one way or another we need to do something to unblock it. If the proposed solution was one that was not really jeopardizing the evolution of the project, I will accept it. But since I really believe the proposed solution is not better, it does not necessarily take less time to achieve than the alternative I mentioned, can someone fluent on CI tell everyone how much it really cost to tell our current CI to compile tools repo before operator one?
