With a difference of only ten, it could simply be that there were more in that month rather than it's been increasing overall. You need to look at the trend. That may show that we're falling behind, or it may we're not. I don't know. But even if the trend is that there are more pull requests, it could be that they're actually being processed faster, but it's just that there are more in the queue at a time, making it so that a pull request takes about as long to get processed now as it did a year ago. It very well be that there needs to be more people involved, but the fact that there are 10 more requests in the queue doesn't mean much. - Jonathan M Davis
