Ouch, that's two releases in a row with problems showing
up straight away after release.
Looks like it might be time to put some kind of regression
testing in place, as a go/no-go release criteria.
Our adhoc approach isn't working well enough any more.
If we had followed our existing rules more strictly it
would be have been fine. The stuff that caused the breakage
was a new feature, so it should not have been merged at
that late stage. All new features should have been merged
a week before, with only bug fixes following.
