Independent of this specific case, I don't think expecting sysadmin (ie practically just Ben as far as CI is concerned) to deal with dependency updates on the CI is going to scale, we need to see that as our all responsibility. And since the move away from Jenkins a lot of that work can be done without special sysadmin powers: * Figure out if upstream has the new version already, and if not figure out what's blocking that (and outside of Linux/FreeBSD upstream is also us, via Craft). * Submit MRs for the CI pieces that need updating (container images, Gitlab template). * And probably most importantly: help with dealing with the potential fallout form the updates.
