I don't disagree with that. I have been implementing that rule manually
already. Please let me know if I hadn't.

We had a travis regression last week, which was to my understanding due to
a conflict between two PR. The code was mergeable, but the test introduced
in one was not compatible with the code change introduced in the other one.

We have a lot of activities those last few weeks. I hope we will continue
on that trend with the forthcoming nine release.

I try to merge the code as soon as possible with the rules (of thumb) as
follow:
- If the change is trivial enough and looks good to me, I just wait for
travis and hit the merge button
- If there is more debatable changes, I :+1: and wait for a few days so
that other ppl have the time to review it.

Please don't hesitate to help applying this process as well. Hit the review
and merge buttons when you think it is appropriate!

Done.

jc2k has been very helpful at transferring the ownership of the original
fork of buildbot_travis to the buildbot organisation. With this we can keep
our SEO rank, fork list, and starlist, as github is setting up redirects as
appropriate.
