I have talked with Alexis and I'll work with her and the core team to get that done.

I think it's fine to make it a plan that we will have Windows tests on for 2.0 GA, but at the moment we're focused on all the breaking changes to the APIs and those are not Windows-relevant. >> With the race tests, we got all of >> those passing before turning on gating.

Please do that now - leave the passing Windows tests in place and ask the Windows teams to enable further tests which we then add to the gate. Blocking all trunk landings with a chunk of known-failing tests is not good practice.

Hey, this is why I pointed out that it would block all landings. And believe me, I double-checked that this was really what Torsten wanted. But is this week really any different from any other week? Won't there always be something critical that has to land? > With the race tests, we got all of > those passing before turning on gating. We need to do the same for the Windows > tests. We need to deactivate gating on Windows at this stage. But there are some tests that do pass under windows. By disabling all tests, we risk further regressions on Windows. Instead, you could disable the tests that don't pass (only when running under Windows, of course), and then work to fix them. That way, we have a passing test suite and a way to work incrementally on fixing the Windows testing instead of requiring a flag-day coordinated change.
