As of right now, there are 229 entries in this commitfest (not counting the items already committed or RWF). It's hard for me to tell for sure, because the activity log page doesn't stretch back far enough, but I think about 40 of those have been created in the last 24 hours. It's certainly well over 20, because the log does go back far enough to show 21 patch records created since about noon Wednesday UTC. This is NOT how it is supposed to work. This is gaming the system. I think that we should summarily bounce to the September 'fest anything submitted in the last two days; certainly anything that's nontrivial. There is no way that we can possibly handle 200+ CF entries in a month. A large fraction of these are going to end up pushed to September no matter what, and I think simple fairness demands that we spend our time on the ones that are not Johnny-come-latelies. We also need to be pretty hard-nosed about quickly bouncing anything that's not realistically going to be able to get committed this month. I've not gone through the list in detail, but there are at least several waiting-on-author items that have seen no activity since the last 'fest. I'd recommend marking those RWF pretty soon. regards, tom lane
