Hackers,
Per the Developer Meeting, we are scheduled to do a final triage of 9.4
patches the week before CF4 starts, which is *now*. The goal of this
triage is to divide patches already in queue into 5 groups:
1) Good To Go: patches which are 100% ready for final testing and commit.
2) Needs a Little Work: smaller patches which can be included in 9.4 if
they get a few hours of love from a committer or major hacker.
3) Big Patches: big, important patches which will need a major time
committement to commit even though they are 90% ready, just due to size.
4) Not Nearly Ready: Patches which need major work and/or spec
discussions before commitment.
5) WIP: any patch which is acknowledged just there for review, or any
brand-new patch which wasn't in CF3 and is non-trivial.
Obviously, any patches in groups 4 and 5 aren't going into 9.4. The
idea is to handle patches in CF4 in this order:
1. do immediately
2. do after (1) is complete
3. assign 1 senior hacker reviewer to each patch
4. review as time permits after 1-3
5. review as time permits after 1-3
Let the triage begin!
