There will be situations where this is unrealistically difficult for one reason or another.

If a team pulls this card, they should have a responsibility to help get the patch relanded in a timely manner. bholley _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
