Dear dev list, While the decision at the PSC meeting was to merge the first batch of renames to have it in for 8.4 [1], the PRs [2] will need reviews to be merged. Anyone can leave an approving review. One approving review from a member of the grass-write team [3] will be needed to enable merging. For your convenience, here are the links to the PRs:
