Agreed.

Perhaps it is just a matter of communicating the stable tree workflow.
I currently only see notice emails from Greg about patches being queued
for stable.

I never saw an email from you or Greg saying, the branch "stable-xxx" is
in review. Please run your tests.

I have seen reports from LTP about stable kernels, so I know it is
being run regularly and I recently saw the set of xfstests configurations
that Sasha and Luis posted.

Is there any publicly available information about which tests are being run
on stable candidate branches?

Thanks,
Amir.
