 Hi @espellcaste

 The biggest painpoint is relative to releasing an "old" branch's tag (Eg:
 11.x). This is due to the fact we then absolutely need to use `nvm` to
 make sure to go back to a previous version of node to `grunt build`.

 Another part a bit annoying is updating the files on WP Plugin Directory
 SVN repo:
 - maybe I'm making my life harder as I only update the files that have
 been modified (I could completely override all files)
 - you absolutely need to `svn stat` to see the files needing to be added
 to the ones to be committed. When there's a lot of new files, it's pretty
 annoying as you need to `svn add` files one by one (maybe I'm missing
 something about SVN usage though).

 And of course, we need to test the build before with a fresh WordPress (to
 test install) or an existing WordPress + BuddyPress (to test upgrade).
