Yeah, I rely mostly on the automation but I run the build on my Mac several times before a release and if any of them fail I wouldn’t even start the release process. I still am working on my $dayjob project and would still want to take a look at open Jira issues before starting the release. I would suggest others use the time to look at open PRs and Jira issues for any that look a) important, b) easy to fix, or c) interesting to you and work on them.
I guess it should be stated again that I use those 3 criteria when I am evaluating Jira issues. If they don’t fall into one of those categories for any of the committers they are never going to be fixed without a PR or someone paying someone to be interested.
