Well, I was not asking for postmortem of a particular breakage, per-se. Such a bug is well within the competent hands of GfW developer(s). I was more interested in learning an improved process, e.g. giving you an advance notice of a few days so that you can do a practice run in the not-so-final-but-close-enough tip of the 'maint' branch to find out unexpected recent breakage either in the code or in your toolchain before the real release needs to be made in timely fashion, would have helped. Thanks.
