In regards to this - I did try to highlight to the devel list small/discrete features that were marked RTBC, but possibly overlooked: http://groups.drupal.org/node/4943 Probably it was too little too late, and perhaps points out what a valuable service Augustin provided during the D5 cycle. Maybe recruiting a couple people (especially those interested in contributing but without the desire to file/review core patches) to compile such analyses of the issue queue during the D7 cycle would help the process? -Peter On 7/3/07, Chris Johnson <cxjohnson@gmail.com> wrote:
In my experience, often RTBC patches which are many weeks old just didn't get the attention and general approval of the appropriate influential developers. The code can be perfect, the design can be perfect, but if the issue isn't interesting, the patch can languish.
I should like to note that this has improved over the years, so we are at least heading in the right direction.
