I agree that lately there seems to be minimal benefit of the commitfest
process. I don't see many disadvantages either, but...
No idea how to fix that, it seems most people are simply swamped with
work and stuff.
I made a pass through most of the commitfest entries to update their
state to something sensible and where it seemed necessary inquired the
newest status.
Not sure thats really welcome, but it was the only thing I could think
of helping to make some progress.
