I have also been a strong advocate for +keeping the gate working well, for fixing problems instead of rechecking them, +and for optimizing our testing infrastructure to keep it healthy for +everyone to use. + +I have been on the TC for a few years now, and have been focused on +keeping the TC aware and involved with day-to-day developer-facing +issues, such as gate performance. That has gone well and yielded +improvement in reducing spurious failures across multiple projects, as +well as paring down of duplicative testing and addressing other +performance issues. I also championed the effort to define a modified +slow/fast release cycle to address operational concerns about release +frequency. We are headed into the cycle where our first SLURP-to-SLURP +upgrade promise will be tested and I plan to continue to focus on making +sure that works, is tested, and is documented for operators.
