Is there any way to move some of that work up into the earlier commit
fests? (I'm afraid I still don't have my head around exactly what
sorts of issues are addressed in this phase.)
By the way, I hope that nobody is taking any of my observations or
questions as criticism or complaint. It seems pretty obvious that the
process currently involves a fair amount of frustration and pain for
all involved, and I'm trying to brainstorm to help. Don't think for a
minute that I forget or fail to appreciate the tremendous work you do,
along with that done by everyone else.
