</div>thinking more about it...<br>
maybe what we actually need is someone with a wide enough knowledge of the<br>
codebase, that continuously uses master and tests, poking people when<br>
regressions happen? (especially in areas far from what one usually works in,<br>
since for own area "proximity blindness" can happen) this kindof happens<br>
already, but there isn't anythng "formal "about it<br>
<br>
it would be something not fun to do at all, but perhaps is kinda needed?<br>
a figure that help the release manager?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I think this is too big for one person.<br><br></div><div>It might be better to allocate different people to different parts of Plasma & Kwin.
