The merges have been moved forward to today (see Sylvestre's
dev.planning post).<br>
<br>
I've not had any offers for taking over this yet. <br>

Hi folks,<br>
<br>
I've currently been doing comm-* repository merges for the last
few years, and I'd like to hand them off to other people now.
Hence, I'm looking for volunteers, so you know what you're signing
up for, here's a few pointers:<br>
<ul>
<li>Merges happen once every six weeks on <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://wiki.mozilla.org/RapidRelease/Calendar">merge
day</a>. Generally these happen in the morning pacific time.<br>
</li>
<li>We have scripts (and some older documentation) to
automatically merge the repositories. Only a quick visual
check of the results is required.</li>
<li>Only one person is needed to do the merges on a particular
day, but having multiple people who can do it would obviously
be better if someone is away.</li>
<li>I think its probably a requirement that you're already
familiar with pushing to comm-*, level 3 access is definitely
required.<br>
</li>
<li>You'll need to have treestatus access to be able to close
& open the trees</li>
<li>You probably don't have bandwidth limits on your connection
(the current scripts perform fresh clones each time to ensure
a clean merge)</li>
</ul>
<p>I'd like to transition to at least one person starting next
week - 2nd Nov. I should be around for the December one as well
if there's any follow-up questions, but generally I'd like to
move away from doing these now.<br>
</p>
<p>If you want to help out with these, please let me know. If
there's more than one, we'll look at getting a couple of you up
to speed, and then you can arrange it amongst yourselves.<br>
</p>
<p>Mark.<br>
