Hi Colin,
Previously I asked you to keep it to 3 patches per countdown, but
we're not clearing through the backlog. Could you increase it to
5 patches per countdown, at least until we're on top of things
again?
This is particularly relevant because of the upcoming automatic
formatting; any patches left unpushed when that happens will
require a fair amount of manual attention.

I've been selecting patches with at least one positive comment. There
are a great number of patches which don't have a positive indication of
being complete. There are, I think, only two ways of getting them off
the "review" list: I nag directly the last devel who worked on them, or
I mark them "abandoned" after a determined number of days. I don't feel
that patches should be on the countdown until *someone* other than the
owner has gone on record as approving them. Another discipline which
would help would be the owner marking the patch "needs-work" when
another devel points out flaws or improvement, then setting it back to
"review" when it is final. Of course, I may be way off base in my
selection criteria, but it is frequently difficult to find 3 which have
been approved. One thing which may help get rid of those which have
had a countdown, would be to tag the issue when the countdown starts,
e.g. tomorrow's batch would get tagged "CD-110717" to show they should
be pushed, marked fixed and closed on Reitveld on that date.
