Commitfest progress

Hi all

It looks like the commitfest is making very slow progress. At this point
it strikes me that it may be time to look for a line to draw between 9.3
and post-9.3 work, defer all post-9.3 work, and then get the rest into
shape.

As I stepped up to work on the CF and then became immediately swamped in
other work I bear some of the responsibility for not keeping things
rolling. There's been quite a lot of progress, in that we're down from
over 90 open patches to less than 50, but 50 is still a lot of patches.

Right now most work is awaiting comprehensive review. A smaller
proportion are waiting to author and are likely to be bumped to the next
version; it's the stuff waiting for review that seems most pressing.

It'd be really good if anyone with a patch in the CF could follow up
with an opinion on its readiness and, if appropriate, push it to the
next CF. I'll be going through the patch list and following up with my
own summaries, but I remain pretty swamped so it'll be a trickle rather
than a flood.

Just FYI, this is exactly why I wanted a 2nd CF manager for this CF.

I'll try to find time this weekend to go through the pending patches and
check status. I'll start at the bottom of the list and you can start at
the top.

Works for me, since I haven't been able to find time for it during the
week.

Set aside a couple hours to deal with it this AM, foiled because my
community account is broken. Grrr.

we might be able to fix this if you could tell us what exactly the
problem is?

Already sent you private email. Figured the web team would be offline
by now, though ...

Where was that discussed, and who objected to the 2nd CF manager?

It was discussed when Craig volunteered. I suggested two CF managers,
two people (and Craig) said no, and nobody supported the idea. So I
dropped it.

It's a bit late now, but we've learned that having only one CF manager
for the last CF was the wrong choice. We'll know better next year.

If I said no I was wrong to do so. I don't remember that, but that's not
unheard of for me.
