This work is complete. Here's what you (particularly core reviewers) need to know about reviewing changes: * Code review +2 votes will no longer trigger Jenkins. * Core reviewers may now feel free to vote with any value between -2 and +2 on any change. They should vote +2 if they want their vote to be counted as meeting the inclusion criteria of "positive reviews from at least 2 core developers". Such votes from core reviewers are now easily visible on the review page. * To approve a change and start the merge process, core reviewers should vote +1 in the "Approved" category (click the review button again, and only change the value for the "Approved" category). * Core reviewers should periodically scan for reviews that are ready for approval and approve them if they feel they have been sufficiently reviewed and the inclusion criteria are met. * There is a new column, labeled "A", on all the pages where changes are listed that corresponds to the "Approved" category ("V" and "R" are "Verified" and "Code Review" respectively). That should help make visible reviews that have at least one core reviewer but haven't yet been approved. Here is an example of what the votes for a review should look like now; this review has 2 reviews from core reviewers, was then approved, and then Jenkins verified the change and merged it: https://review.openstack.org/#change,2287 Please contact me (jeblair) or Monty (mtaylor) on IRC if you run into a problem or need any help with the new process.
