[openstack-dev] [infra][tripleo] initial discussion for a new periodic pipeline

Hi, Paul
I would say that real worthwhile try starts from "normal" priority, because
we want to run promotion jobs more *often*, not more *rarely* which happens
with low priority.
In addition the initial idea in the first mail was running them each after
other almost, not once a day like it happens now or with "low" priority.

Thanks
