Not that I have an issue with any recent commits, and with me being less than active perhaps I should just shut up, but I did want to highlight the 24 hr clause. I'm seeing patches enter bugzilla, get voted on and get committed in < 24 hrs. While there are good reasons to bypass the 24 hr pause, it is there for a reason. Also, it is polite to allow patch creators, who are also committers, to apply and commit their own patches unless a) they pass that off to someone else or b) enough time has passed with sufficient votes for the patch to be committed.
