Hi Greg, I'm really happy to see you joined to the log-addressing discussion.
> That is no "decision" because it didn't occur here on the list. Personally, I think that most of the new features should be developed incrementally in trunk. But the log addressing feature was already developed in a branch (by a single developer) and I treat some kind of voting as the only way to get the peer review for such big code. I think we should make things clear with that policy and apply it in a consistent way (or do not apply it at all). Note that there was an *request* to apply this policy for a relatively small fix in the FSFS code [1]. > As Branko notes, "voting" is not typically done in this community. There > have been only a few in its near-15 year history. I see no reason to change > that now That was not mine suggestion to make a vote [2] and there was lazy consesus on this matter. But anyway I think it was a good idea because it actually catalyzed the through review of the code bomb committed in the r1547045.
