FreeBSD flood of 8 breakage announcements in 3 mins.

[Julian H. Stacey]

Hi core@,
cc hackers@ & stable@

PR headline : "FreeBSD flood of 8 breakage announcements in 3 mins."

https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-announce/2019-May/date.html

Volunteers who contribute actual fixes are very much appreciated;
But those styled as 'management' who delay announcements to batch floods
damage us. As they've previously refused to stop, it's time to sack them.

Just send each announcement out when ready, no delays to batch them.
No sys admins can deal with 8 in 3 mins:
  Especially on multiple systems & releases.  Recipients start
  mitigating, then more flood in, & need review which are
  most urgent to interrupt to;  While also avoiding sudden upgrades
  to many servers & releases, to minimise disturbing server users,
  bosses & customers.

Cheers,
Julian
