One month of no deploys seems pretty high for an organization that does upwards of a hundred deploys a day. 2 days seems far more reasonable for the organizational philosophy they're going for.

Yep, it is a long time which is why I mean to speak specifically on the infrastructure side of things. Modifying the agg layer providing connectivity for all prod systems during a holiday weekend would suck.

When I say prod, I mean prod infrastructure. Not code.

Sorry for the confusion.

Code changes are not the same as infrastructure changes.

Well he did say "prod changes", which I would take to include all changes to the production environment, code and otherwise.
