I don't follow the Buildbot day to day, unfortunately, and there are many configurations; so I rely on everyone with regular emails on this list to help me determine whether there might be issues blocking for (1) cutting the branch, and (2) making the official release. We keep the list on a wiki page that helps us track identified issues for each release. For instance, for 7.10, we have: https://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/GDB_7.10_Release As you can see, very little has been reported. I am happy holding the creation of the official release up for however long it would take to analyze the buildBot failures, and to fix all blocking issues. Honestly, given the traffic seen here derived from issues found by the buildBot, I thought that people were already keeping an eye on the results. -- Joel
