Well, as long the CWS is in state "new", neither QA or program
management should care for it. It is still firmly in the domain of
development. And there is absolutely not reason to even _care_ and
maintain "allowed releases" or other bureaucratic stuff, as development
at this stage only cares about failed buildbots and failed tests and EIS
should behave that way. Certainly devs do not want to beg PM for adding
an allowed release so they can again have a sensible summary of the
_important_ information at this stage. Once the CWS goes RfQA it is a
different issue: this is the point where the bureaucratic stuff starts.

OTOH it might be simpler to just keep the important development info
(bots and tests) out of EIS. Thereby devs could happily ignore it while
it is irrelevant (before RfQA) and still have relevant information at
hand in that phase.

Just my heretic 2 euro cents,
