+1 FWIW I think we just haven't made reviews as much of a priority at the same time that we got an influx of contribution. We also started getting serious on CI, which I think has slowed the pace through the review machine, with the bonus that we break ourselves less often. :) > -Rob > _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
