Sorry, I did not mean to target you specifically. 
My apologies if it came across like that, the remark was meant generally:

Every time the build or release is discussed, all I hear practically 
amounts to "the problems are insurmountable". That is why I term it
negativity.

My sincere hope is that by putting some different structure in place, things
will go smoother. If we need to let go of some practices from the past, then
that should be possible.
