I have to agree with Sim here ... I'd say (if it were entirely up to me): 1. backout the changes 2. make sure the current QA tests run 3. add categories servicediscovery,discoveryservice,io and security to the QA test categories to run by Hudson, one by one 4. make sure these QA tests run as well 5. piece by piece, restore the changes and keep an eye on any tests failing. In parallel, keep validating and adding more QA test categories.
This would allow us to work in a more structured manner, and to perform peer reviews on bite size changes. We have to better organize ourselves, considering the limited resources we have. To summarize: - the changes to RemoteEvent etc. caused many discovery related tests to fail - the changes to ClassLoading caused some classloading / io related tests to fail - the changes to DynamicPolicyProvider caused security (and other) tests to fail And that's what I found after going through it very quickly and backing out some obvious things. These actually look more like experiments than actual tested changes. IMO, this kind of experimentation should probably be done in a skunk branch, not the trunk. If for any reason, my understanding is incorrect, and backing out is not an option, then I would suggest to at least create a JIRA issue for each of the above topics.
