Well, if you get to the point where you're done churning the code in
the next week or so, I'm willing to do one or two more rounds of
serious review, but if that doesn't get us there then I think we need
to give up. The energy you've put into this is commendable, but we're
about to start the third month of this CommitFest, and until we get
this release at least to beta or so, we can't start any new
CommitFests or branch the tree. That basically means that nothing
else of mine is going to get committed until the current crop of
patches are dealt with - or for a good while after, for that matter,
but getting the current crop of patches dealt with is the first step.
Of course, I also want to have a good release and I understand the
necessity of spending time on other people's patches as well as my
own, as I believe I've demonstrated, but I don't want to stay in that
mode indefinitely, which I think is an understandable position.
