I am also interested in this one. Regression tracking is a very time
consuming task and we should discuss how that can be improved, so that
we get a sustainable solution that works for the kernel.

As Thorsten already pointed out, better tooling would help. But I think
this will also involve teaching our testers/users on how to best report
regressions. Part of the discussion should also be on automation, for
example if we could/should revive the kerneloops tool?

Just my few thoughts, but if this is goind to be discussed, I'd like to
particpate.
