Does it matter if one is one of the six persons that were lately
assigned to do code review or not? Did the earlier announcement
suddenly give more weight to their opinions? In my opinion things like
this does not help in getting other people (volunteers) to help with
the code review, which is something Danese was planning to do - unless
I remember incorrectly.
I've previously indicated my support of merging the working parts of
the Vector enhancements to core. Sure it is more code for the new
release and the merge can cause bugs, but on the other hand those
really seem to be useful to lots of people. I also think that confused
sysadmins are less happy than sysadmins who have to do changes but are
not so confused. It takes more time to figure out what is what and why
something is not working than do the actual changes.
