That's right; I want to keep us focused, and also want to create a general feeling of minimal bureaucracy, that whatever little we have [and this may grow as we discover a need for it] serves to make things run more smoothly, not to be an impediment to getting working done. I think the problem is more that they create a general feeling of backlog (if you're not paying attention, they can go on the pile and then create a general scary impression of there being too much to do) > I quite understand if that's the case, and I'm not opposing this change, > I just want to be sure I understand the rationale behind it. Thanks! I'm updating http://wiki.darcs.net/Development/PatchReview accordingly. By the way, if I were you (Trent), I'd push patch109 directly as on obviously trivial patch. :-) -- Eric Kow <http://www.nltg.brighton.ac.uk/home/Eric.Kow> PGP Key ID: 08AC04F9
