[platform-releng-dev] Suggest we do just I-builds for a week or 2, instead of N-builds

I think given bug 401098 [1] and bug 415966 [2] we should do daily I-builds for a while instead of the 8 PM Nightly builds (we'd still do the I-builds at 8 PM, Eastern and the "official weekly" one still at 8 AM on Tuesdays).
 
Both bugs require "signing" and "comparator" to be "in use" to know for sure all cases have been covered.
There are only about 2 or 3 weeks left until M2, and I doubt "2 or 3 I-builds" will be enough to confirm all cases have been fixed.

As far as I know, only SWT is using both "master and integration" branches ... so unless SWT needs to try something in "master" first,
the N builds and I builds have the same content .... except for the signing and comparator usage.

Let me know if anyone objects, or thinks we need more discussion ... otherwise I'll assume this is "ok" with everyone. Hopefully it will be easier, since it allows more incremental improvement, instead of one big weekly panic.

But, please do speak up if this plan has unanticipated consequences I am not aware of.  

Thanks,
