Sounds good to me.

Betreff: [jbosstools-dev] Proposed new approach to devstudio milestones
when blockers/criticals are found: ship with Known Issues
Datum: Thu, 13 Sep 2018 15:48:02 -0400
A couple days ago, the Fuse Tooling team encountered what was at first
thought as a blocker, but later downgraded [0].
This brought up the issue of what to do when problems are found late in
the QE test cycle (3hrs before the usual signoff).
There are of course 3 options when this happens:
a) block the release and respin, then wait 4-6 hrs for new bits, and
some number of hours for QE to review & approve the changed build.
Release ends up being delayed by a day or two
b) block the release and DO NOT SHIP
c) release AS IS with note about Known Issues on the project's New &
Noteworthy [1] page and on the blog [2].

Along with the new approach to doing fewer milestone releases [3], I'd
like to propose that we:
* stop doing respins UNLESS it's a GA candidate build.

So, for an AMx milestone build, we should mostly do option c (ship w/ a
note), unless the milestone is REALLY unusable, in which case option b
would apply.
How do you feel about this approach?
