IIUC, I’m currently responsible for two of seven Bug Squad shifts, 
however I have not at all kept with the official guidelines, instead 
just taken action if it seemed necessary. E.g., I have to thank Federico 
for solely keeping up with verifying fixed issues. This is not at all 
related to anything you might have done or not done, David, but due to 
myself being busy with other things. I hope that we still succeeded as 
Bug Squad to keep at least some reliability.

Best, Simon
