maybe what we need is to put a policy for large patches... something
like: if you submit a large patch that introduce fairly complex new
features very late in the release cycle (maybe at the last commit fest
or previous to that one) then there are no promises about committers
to review them... maybe that will enforce authors to send patches more
often and more early...
and of course, the rest of us that make some kind of review (call it:
testing or code review) should start making those reviews on large
patches (just like someone suggests)
