definitely agreed, thanks a lot for running the commit fest Sawada-san!

about 1 month. But if I confirm that the author has a plan to update
the patch soon I didn't close them. So I might have left too many
patches for the next commitfest. If you have a patch that was moved,
and you intend to rewrite enough of it to warrant a resubmission then
please go in and close your entry.

I respect your kind treatment like this. A great job and great thanks! It must have been tough to shift through so many difficult discussions.

From another point of view, those patches are likely to have a long
discussion and a certain level of difficulty, so it's relatively hard
for beginners. It would be good if the experienced hackers more focus
on such difficult patches. It's a just idea but I thought that it
would be helpful if we could have something like a mark on CF app
indicating the patch is good for beginners like we have [E] mark in
the ToDo wiki page[1]. This would be a good indicator for new-coming
contributors to choose the patch to review and might help increase the
reviewers. Which could help that the experienced hackers can focus on
other patches. The mark can be added/edited either by the patch author
or CFM.

+10
Or maybe we can add some difficulty score like e-commerce's review score, so that multiple people (patch author(s), serious persistent reviewers, CFM, and others who had a look but gave up reviewing) can reflect their impressions.
Further, something like stars or "Likes" could be encouraging (while 0 count may be discouraging for the author.)
Also, I'd be happy if I could know the patch set size -- the total of the last line of diffstat for each patch file.

Hi,
Anyone else already volunteers that? It is my first time so need some
access, if all agree.

Thanks for volunteering!

That said, our last commitfest tends to be the most difficult as it's
the last opportunity for features to land in time for the next major
release and, for my part at least, I think it'd be best to have
someone who has experience running a CF previously manage it.

To that end, I've talked to David Steele, who has run this last CF for
the past few years and we're in agreement that he's willing to run this
CF again this year, assuming there's no objections. What we've thought
to suggest is that you follow along with David as he runs this CF and
then offer to run the July CF. Of course, we would encourage you and
David to communicate and for you to ask David any questions you have
about how he handles things as part of the CF. This is in line with how
other CF managers have started out also.

Open to your thoughts, as well as those of anyone else who wishes to
comment.

Thanks!

Stephen

As we know July commitfest is coming, I already volunteered to manage that.
I
did small work with David in the last commitfest and now ready to work on
that
