It's a bummer that we often find ourselves turning to processes to
make up for a lack of discipline. If that's how it has to be how about
we make sure the pain if easy to feel. So, for example, if there are
periodic jobs on master and they've just failed for a project, how
about just close the gate for that project until the failure
identified by the periodic job is fixed?
