Hi Simon, That's awesome, anything that facilitates releases is more than welcome! Do you have plans for next steps? Maybe create issues in dev-tools or housekeep? I'm available to test, at the very least with reviewing/testing :) Oh, we need to keep in mind this means more disk space will be used, not long ago we had outages exactly due running out of disk space.
