Michael,


During the Beta period, every open item is the responsibility of the
relevant committer. There is an expectation that each item will be dealt
with in a timely fashion. It is the RMT's responsibility to monitor the
open items list and take action if any item on the list endangers the
timing or stability of the release.

In the present instance all we have had from you is a terse statement
that you were under pressure of work, with the implication that you
would deal with the item in an unspecified way at an unspecified time in
the future. We don't think that meets the requirements I stated above.

W.r.t. previous contact regarding this item, I sent you email on July
23rd. It was addressed to  <mailto:meskes@postgresql.org> and had this text:

Other committers with items on the list can probably testify to the fact
that we have dropped them similar notes via email or messenger app, so
you're certainly not being singled out.

Peter followed up to your eventual note on the list on the 30th. So
we've taken substantial steps to make you aware of what is expected.


cheers
