Hi Pau,

Correct. For osmo-gsm-tester repo I noticed delays of at least 1 hour to sync pushed branches in gerrit origin to git.osmocom. Same goes for patches merged in gerrit ending up in master in git.osmocom. and I didn't check with detail, but I'd say it could actually take several hours. This didn't happen (or I didn't notice it, but I think I'd have noticed it) prior to 1 or 2 weeks ago.
So who wants to plot graphs about the latency and feed that into MRTG/grafane or whatever kind of monitoring?
This brings me to a more serious question: Do we have people in this community who would be interested in volunteering as sysadmins for the Osmocom.org infrastructure? There's quite a number of services that we run by now, starting from redmine/gerrit/cgit/jenkins/mailman to the build slaves, etc.
There's also quite a bit of "DevOps" related work pending, such as having Dockerfiles or ansible playbooks to set-up new build slaves, collection of logs/pcaps from the TTCN-3 integration test runs, down to simply having some monitoring in place to monitor the status of the various services and servers [buildslave running out of disk, etc.].
I think this is an idea opportunity for people who are not developers but still want to contribute - or even for developers but those who (think they) don't have the low-level C or telecom skills to work on Osmocom.
Thanks in advance to any interested in contributing in this area.
Regards, Harald
