Thinking how to solve this is not that hard after all.

Setting this new configuration will allow publish packages if any of the uplinks fails, it will be false by default.

publish:
  allow_offline: true

@eephillip Do yo like the solution?

[juanpicado]

Closing this, seems abandoned. I'll merge. Feel free to reopen whether you have further comments.

[eephillip]

I just tried this out, this is great. I'll put it through some paces, but looks good so far.

[juanpicado]

Thanks, @eephillip for confirming it! I'm glad it worked out.
