Hi,

I agree, and only vote +1 myself, but I don’t agree on mandating it. If someone has invested enough in their CI to be confident, we just supply rope.

Thanks,

I don’t think there are many cases where a third party CI tool has caught a genuine issue that Jenkins has missed. With the current voting rights these CI tools cause a lot of noise when they experience problems.
