Yeah, the May commitfest page is already up. I have been requesting patch submitters to add their entries there. The problem we had with the 20000 emails was that we didn't have any record of patches waiting for review -- a problem that we will hopefully have only once. I would expect our next release (this one) to not have such a long queue of things, because of the whole commitfest idea. I agree with what some are saying here: there's no automatic notification when we add, remove or change status of patches, or other issues. I did voice my opinion that I thought a wiki page was not a real tracker. Hopefully, in working with the wiki we will gather enough experience that we'll be able to decide _how_ we want our tracker to work -- if we decide we want to switch from the wiki at all. BTW, Greg Stark already dumped the patch queue into a wiki page some time ago: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/CommitFest:Bruce Do you think that's more useful than the other commitfest layout?
