May I take this as a formal request from yourself that Gitlab CI is

Based on the extremely frequent requests we get concerning it in
#kde-sysadmin I am not sure if your request here is in line with
general community consensus.
Also, be aware that Sysadmin currently has other infrastructure level
projects underway needed to get us off Ubuntu 16.04, which are
currently delayed because we haven't had anyone volunteer to assist us
with adding support for OAuth2/MyKDE to Reimbursements.
Based on the above, I assume you are also requesting that we delay
this, and accept the corresponding security issues that will accompany
it when Ubuntu 16.04 loses support in the coming months in order to
get this actioned?
Hmm, I don't see where I suggested any of those things.
If you folks are really that overloaded, we need to figure out how to
fix that. A workload that exceeds available resources doesn't help
anyone. The last time this came up, people called for additional
volunteers to assist. Did that end up bearing any fruit?
Anyway I apologize if my tone was off. I wasn't meaning to accuse
sysadmins of anything, and I guess I didn't realize how overloaded the
team is right now.
That being what it is, perhaps a more productive line of discussion
would be to ask: "what do you need from us so that these things that
need to happen, and that we all want, can reach fruition faster?" You
don't have to suffer in silence! :)
