Re: [development] taking a break

I wonder if the concerns about bottlenecks and decentralization could be addressed if Dries habitually marked some patches as "non-strategic" and left them to others. Perhaps then the "strategic" patches could get earlier feedback and guidance. Correcting bugs or code style could be considered "non-strategic", but of course the line can depend on a few things, not the least of which is the available time to spend.
