[eclipse.org-committers] Update - Backlog - Email Avoidance Week
|
When I last wrote to you all it was to let you know
that we had a particularly large package that was creating delays in reviewing
the IP you have submitted for our review. The good news is that we are 3/4
way there. The bad news is that there's still 1/4 to go. Replying to
your questions and concerns is an important part of our jobs and we make every
effort to respond as quickly as well can, increasingly at the expense of code
review. The cumulative
effect is an increasing backlog. There are two things we are going
to do to help address this issue:
(1) The entire IP Team is going to avoid all
email/IPZilla discussion this week. We will use the added time to
finish the large package under review and clear some of the backlog. If
you have something truly urgent, send an email to me with "URGENT" in the
subject line or feel free to give me a call.
(2) We are going to ask the PMCs and Mentors to
the Projects to more actively provide guidance on the IP process, and encourage
the Projects to seek out their support. While we recognize that the
PMCs and Mentors may not know all the answers, rest assured that we will be
there to help. Our hope is that in supporting the PMCs and
Mentors in providing this guidance we will be better able to
scale.
We appreciate your patience as we work to serve you
better.
Regards,
Janet
