Let's get sign-off from your WMDE manager (who is that?) and from @hashar or @greg in releng. There is also an outstanding ssh key issue, see me or anyone on the SRE team for details.

My manager is @Tobi_WMDE_SW, and the CI work would usually full under the maintenance / 20% category for that job. For example, right now I'm trying to help correct some flapping tests that are annoying for us, T219114: phan 1.2.6 is OOMing on MediaWiki core

The ssh key issue has been cleared up.

If you really want :) Approved.

I'm having second thoughts about this request, because I'm no longer see that I'll be useful in this role. Building and publishing images is a straightforward process, and the burdensome work is to write and test patches in integration-config/dockerfiles (something I can do without privileges), and bumping image versions which is just part of deployment.

I'll decline this task and only reopen if I run into it as an obstacle.
