Why? There's plenty stuff that's chugging along in development but ought to be processed at less urgency / by different people, than the stuff targeted to be committed soon. It's already frustrating to contribute to postgresql for new people, but if they don't get feedback for half a year because they submitted around December / January it's almost guaranteed that they vanish. Additionally, there's an increasing amount of development projects that are too large to complete in a single cycle, and if we just stop looking at them for half a year, they'll also not succeed.
