I adore the fact that none of you has volunteered to help organize the 
commitfest or the Round Robin Reviewers, but seem intent on telling me 
how to do so.   Is this an open source project, or a government agency?

Excuse me for being angry, but the assumption by members of this list 
that I am either an idiot or have sinister intentions is both completely 
undeserved and aggravating.

The -rrreviewers list exists to assign patches to volunteer Round Robin 
Reviewers (which you would know if you'd bothered to read the list 
description, or the RRR wiki page).  There is no discussion on the list, 
just assignments.  As the person doing the assignments, the list makes 
my life much easier.  Otherwise, I am forced to use private e-mail and 
keep a list of who the reviewers are and their e-mail addresses on a 
scratch pad.  Painful, time-consuming, and I lose track of people.  And 
I can't easily turn over the task to others, as I have to do on Nov. 8 
to Dave Page.

If we had *real* software for the commitfests, of course the 
--rreviewers list would be unnecessary; I could assign a patch to a 
volunteer and the system would e-mail them.   But we don't have the 
software, so we need the list.
