Yeah, I get that. A nice feature would be to allow for "reviewfests" to occur and then be transitioned into a "commitfest" inside the application without too much trouble. My fear is that people won't be as motivated to work on patches without a clear transition between phases, but that could certainly be unfounded. I'll just do my best to set expectations among the reviewers and patch authors that nothing will be committed/looked at by committers until July. -selena -- http://chesnok.com/daily - me -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
