6.8.0 not tagged within cod/mainline

[Sune Mølgaard]

Dear Kernel Team,

Looking at 
https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel-test/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/mainline-crack/refs/, 
a detection was made on Sunday that Linus Torvalds tagged v6.8, but 
unlike usually, cod/mainline/v6.8 didn't follow and, hence, assuming 
some automation, build for it haven't been done and pushed to 
https://kernel.ubuntu.com/mainline.

Now, as for the latter link, there happened to be some confusion when 
you went about restructuring that, leading to questions from, amongst 
others, myself, which Jürg Häfliger (Cc:) was kin enough to answer 
(eventually), but with this in recent memory, and builds not 
materialising for 6.8.0, please allow the following comments:

 1. Assuming some automation, are detection of failures of the pipeline
    stages dependent on manual inspection?
 2. If so, then why?
 3. If the pipeline actually notifies a set of people of failures, and
    none have, so far, communicated broadly, should that set be expanded?
     1. I, for one, would very much like to, if not be on the
        notification list, then at least to be able to know what's up
 4. Is there anything I can do to help avoid delays such as this going
    forward?

Best regards,

Sune Mølgaard
