Open Stack

Hi All,

# TL;DR

Please start commenting on the PRs in [1].


# A plea

We currently have 115 open PRs [1]. That figure *excludes* the do-not-merge / wip ones! It's great that the project is seeing so much activity, but here we hit a bottleneck...

We have one hundred and fifteen bug fixes and features that have not landed and *cannot* land until they have been reviewed and approved... by you! The project mandates these reviews and "acks", and for good reason. But until we get more review activity, all those bug fixes and features are "blocked". That's a big shame considering how much time and energy that has gone into creating the PRs, and how close we are to a major release!

If you can spare some cycles, *please* take a look at the backlog [1] and help us to get these changes merged to make Kata better and keep the project momentum high.

Never done this before? No problem - just dive in! Well, after you've taken a peek at [2] and [3]. You might also want to look at [4] for inspiration. Any problems - head for [5] ;)


# An idea

Could we identify a "Top 10" set of PRs each week that we will do everything possible to get landed? I'm sure everyone will have their own opinion of which PRs are important here. Maybe we could vote somehow? If we can implement this, I'd like to suggest that if you propose a "Top 10" PR, you would be expected to help out where possible getting that PR landed *and* helping with the outstanding backlog. Thoughts?

Cheers,

James
