I hope my reading is not wrong. I know a while back some of the things I was trying to land in multiple projects really benefited from having both the relationships and high-bandwidth communication to 4 PTLs, three of whom were in the same room at the time. There is the perception problem, exactly what Mark also wrote about, when that happens off-line, and I think it is our responsibility (those advocating the reviews, and those responding to them) to note the outcome of those discussions on the record somewhere, IMO preferably in Gerrit. dt -- Dean Troyer dtro...@gmail.com
