Hi,

When we moved to the "inbound" model of tree management, the Tree Sheriffs
became a crucial part of our engineering infrastructure. The primary
responsibility of the Sheriffs is and will always be to aid developers to
easily, quickly, and seamlessly land their code in the proper location(s)
and ensure that code does not break our automated tests. In the service of
this objective, the Sheriffs work closely with the larger engineering
organization to create and enforce landing policies that increase
productivity while maintaining an efficient and robust automated testing
system. Beyond the policy role, they have also become shepherds of
automation quality by monitoring intermittent failures, performing uplifts
and merges, and identifying poorly performing automation machines. This
role has proven successful, and so a formal module for the Tree Sheriffs in
the larger context of the Activities Module was created.

But of course there is always room for improvements and ideas how we can
make things better. In order to get a picture from our Community how things
went and how we can improve our day-to day-work.

So we created the Sheriff Survey here -> http://goo.gl/forms/kRXZDtSjSj

Thanks for taking part in that!
