In preparing for the uber next release and staging, I went through all the open pull requests and have merged all that were ready. There are at the moment 25 open PRs remaining, of which another 5 I expect we can merge and are waiting on a committer to hit the green merge button.
Of the remaining PRs, some may be abandoned (I left comments in the PR), a few need some discussion to make a decision (I also left comments in the PR), and others require some review work. I may have asked some of you on this help for help for which I thank you in advance. I have made sure all the PRs have appropriate labels. If you are able to help with the remaining PRs, please take a look at the list here: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk/pulls. Reviews take effort and time and the time you spend is appreciated by contributors and project maintainers alike. I thank you for your patience if you've been waiting on me specifically for a review. I am hoping that this round of housekeeping will help us all regain some velocity on accepting contributions. -r
