GitLab is down: urgent

Hi Ben,

Thanks for getting the fix in so quickly.

However: suppose you were unavailable to do this, due to a well-deserved holiday perhaps. Who else has the credentials and know-how to step in?

I feel as if we should have a resource somewhere with a definitive list of critical services and who has access to what. Perhaps this list should be kept private, in case the knowledge itself is a (small) security risk -- but it should be written down and shared widely enough that it is unlikely for all people with access to be unavailable at the same time.

Do we have such a resource already?

Richard
