But, to reiterate, I think most of the problem will
disappear when we
have regular code deployment again. At this point, it's best to focus
solely on that and forget about all other complaints. If problems
linger for long after everyone's code is getting deployed on a regular
basis, we can talk about that then, and I think everyone will be
talking on much more amicable basis.

Let's focus on the code review situation and shelf this whole
"staff/volunteer/community collaboration" discussion for a while. And
by that, I also mean trying to keep references to it to a minimum and
being less like the lines of "see? THIS is what's wrong with the staff
folks" when something goes bad, something I've been hearing to an
increasing degree lately (that's what the original post was arguing
against). Like Trevor says, let's be nice to each other and be patient
while the code review and deployment situation gets fixed.
This'll probably take months, so I know I'm asking for quite a bit of
patience here. But I believe Aryeh is right that regular code
deployments will cure most of the problems we've been discussing, and
I'm willing to bet on that by putting my disagreements with other
people regarding this topic aside for the next few months, until we've
gotten back to regular code deployment, at which point we can
re-evaluate. My understanding is that Aryeh is also doing that, and I
call upon you all to join us.
