We are now a few days in on Commitfest 2023-07, so it seems about time to send the (by now) customary statistics email on how we are doing, and where we ideally want go.
There are 350 patches registered in this commitfest, with 150 of those having been moved from the past commitfest. If it's not the record, then it's at least in the top-5 of all times. Currently the breakdown looks like this: Needs review: 181 Waiting on Author: 48 Ready for Committer: 38 Committed: 64 Moved to next CF: 3 Withdrawn: 5 Returned with Feedback: 11 Looking at the closed statuses, that means we've already closed 23.7% of all patches. Now, that is heavily influenced by bug-fixes being registered in this CF being closed ahead of the CF as part of the v16 cycle, but it's still very good. Let's focus on reducing the number of patches in Needs Review in order to get them closer to being committable! I will shortly do a patch triage and send to the list to try and solicit work on patches which has promise, but have gone stale or slowed down for whatever reason. The success of PostgreSQL relies on all of us working together. If you haven't yet signed up for reviewing a patch, please consider doing so. If you are signed up and actively reviewing, thank you very much! -- Daniel Gustafsson
