'failing open' #41

Closed zxkevn closed 8 years ago

zxkevn commented 9 years ago

gatekeeper needs to be more error-tolerant in general. default strategy right now is more or less goto cleanup which was good for development but we're past that. a good, thorough review of gatekeeper's code needs to happen to determine when it's still appropriate to bail on errors. all other issues like say, #40, should be handled gracefully without tearing everything down.

You should specify which version of Gatekeeper. The plan moving forward (per @bool101) is to switch to what is now the ebeip90 branch.

Ah well that's news to me.

Mostly it's very similar, just multiple programs instead of one monolithic binary. It allows you to swap out things easily, change ordering, and the binaries are each bite-sized and easy to debug.
