not opposed to trying, but we should set expectations that we're going
to talk about only a few important reviews, not the dozens that are

I was under the same impression.

Stuck reviews were for reviewws were there was strong disagreement (amongst
cores)
Other reviews can be discussed as part of Open discussion

We also have this [1].  That shows unloved reviews which have been open 
for a long time (by latest revision, 72 days currently), by oldest 
revision without a negative score (76 days currently), and oldest 
reviews since first revision (247 days currently).


I don't know if just slapping that link into the nova meeting agenda 
would help at all, but maybe we could take the top 3 oldest changes out 
of there and post those for each meeting agenda to get people to focus 
on them?

 As there has been a bunch of concern around patches getting lost or
 stuck, I wanted to re-announce the fact that we've got a dedicated slot
 at the weekly Nova meeting for just those sorts of things.

The slot turned into everyone talking at once fairly quickly this week.
That led to several patches not getting a real discussion.

May I suggest stricter moderation? EG a short phase to propose items,

I was always considering stuck reviews as reviews where 2 or more cores 
were disagreeing between themselves so that it was needing a debate 
discussion during the meeting.


If we're only saying that 'stuck' means a review which hasn't been 
reviewed since a certain amount of time, then we will be having lots of 
people jumping in to ask for a review, so it would be counterproductive.

[openstack-dev] [nova] stuck patches at the nova IRC meeting

2015-02-04 Thread Sean Dague
As there has been a bunch of concern around patches getting lost or
stuck, I wanted to re-announce the fact that we've got a dedicated slot
at the weekly Nova meeting for just those sorts of things.

https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/Nova#Agenda_for_next_meeting

The Stuck reviews time block is a weekly dedicated slot where a bunch
of nova cores will be. If you believe your patch is stuck solely by lack
of attention (nothing actually wrong with it), please attend the Nova
meeting, add your review to the list (with your IRC handle) and be
prepared to give a 60 second pitch about your patch in question.
