There was an openCI R&R that Ryan Harkin <ryan.harkin(a)arm.com>
*Don post-meeting comment*: ^^^ we've attempted to put a process in place
wherein for any and all issues found, step 1 is to <Create> a ticket from
the TFC Dashboard
<https://linaro.atlassian.net/jira/software/c/projects/TFC/boards/70> with
Labels == TrustedFirmware, setting the Priority appropriately, and
including a description.
The whole team watches this project, so this _should_ be a dependable way
to submit issues. Then Glen/team assign the issue to the right person and
you(customers) can be abstracted.
The above said, we also have the shared slack channel now, and if we're
online we can help answer questions/escalate issues/etc. We can
discuss/optimize/agree on/document the above more formally if it needs to
be.
