Hi everyone, On the recent hackathon in Vienna we talked about the large number of changes still open and how to get the flow back. We currently have over 300 open changes going back to 2014 ( https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/q/status:open+project:pywikibot/core ). A change is in Gerrit because the developer wants code review to get it merged. Code review might not be a lot of fun and this is made worse by this huge backlog. A lot of the changes have issues preventing this: * Merge conflict, needs to be rebased * Not verified, tests fail * Code review -1, -2 My proposal is to abandon the changes we're not going to work on anyway and focus our attention on the changes we do want to get merged. I understand that some changes in which people invested a lot of time and effort will get abandoned, but I think the benefit of getting the code review process back on track is higher. Abandoned changes are not gone, we can always open them again. I ask everyone who has (a lot of) old open changes to have a look at them and make the decision: Pick it up or abandon. If the change is linked to a phabricator task, it would be nice to update the task too. Thank you, Maarten _______________________________________________ pywikibot mailing list pywikibot(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/pywikibot
