FWIW, the September 2012 commitfest also went without a manager *for a month*. I started doing the job at that point because it was pretty clear to me that there was a serious problem. And when I finally closed it (just before the Nov. 2012 one was about to start), it was my intention to manage the next one as well; however somebody else told me they wanted that job, so I stepped aside. That was, probably, a bad decision on my part, and I blame myself for not keeping a closer eye on things that I intuitively knew were going wrong. > I would like to nominate Craig Ringer to be independent CF mgr for Jan2013 CF. Seconded. I particularly like the fact that Craig is not already a PG developer, so he's not going to be working on his own patches. -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
