Are we talking about releasebot and the things that have to be improved on it or are we talking about anything else?

I don't see why you mention all those things, i have said anything against that or i have not recognized enough the great
work you all are doing and have done?

I'm talking only about the improvements needed in the releasebot part and how to achieve them, not about anything else.

Same the improvements discussed in releasebot, are matter of days.

I'm back here (also) for that.
