Hi David,

I think yes.  What Brandon was referring to is linking the process we use
to refresh the container images and the rebuild of the ABI references, so
one triggers the other.  What happened with the failure was the
container images got rebuilt, and that pulled in updates that change the
ABI output (in valid ways), which then "look like" a failure or change from
the reference that was previously saved off.

We save off older versions of the container images (i.e. things are
tagged), so we can always roll back if need to.  ABI reference generation
should be deterministic on that container image, so we don't save
"versions" of those references.

Cheers,
Lincoln
