I agree that we have a problem. I think that we might need more committers, to be honest. There are a lot more libraries than there are people in charge at the moment, so clearly any patch that needs to get committed will have to go through one of these few people. It would also be nice to have at least a clear point person for every library so there's someone to email. I know that we have people in charge of a few libraries, but definitely not all of them.

Additionally, for those of you who watch the list, if you see someone post a new patch, please try and take some time to review it once and a while. It's a lot easier on the committers if the rest of the community has already given the +1 on the patch.

Hi,

Unfortunately this is typical of most of the issues, and not specific to Python. Pulling up a list of the issues that have been closed fixed in the
past two months in JIRA [
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa? reset=true&&pid=12310800&updated% 3Aprevious=-8w&status=5&status=6&resolution=1&sorter/ field=updated&sorter/order=DESC]
is particularly revealing.

Only two individuals have had issues resolved fixed in the past two months. Excluding an issue committed and resolved without any voting or mailing list discussion, only one individual has had patches committed in the last two
months.

Is the project slowing down?

Hi all!

There are at least half a dozen issues in Jira that relate to Python, all with patches, but these don't seem to get to the top of the attention stack for the Thrift team. Is that right? My apologies if not, it's just that a couple of those patches are things I'd like to be using without needing to
keep a patched local version of Thrift.

There are people who'd be happy to help out, if help is needed/ wanted.

Regards & thanks,
Terry
