From: "Kevin Grittner" on
Folks,

The PostgreSQL 9.1 Development Plan:

http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_9.1_Development_Plan

calls for a CommitFest to run from the 15th of July until the 15th
of August. I've offered to manage the CF process this time around.
(Selena, are you up for continuing to work on this through the CF,
too?)

I was reluctant to push very hard on reviewers during the ReviewFest
leading up to the CF, for fear of impacting the release, but I've
taken Robert's words from this post to heart:

In particular:

As Robert point out, we need more reviewers. Before signing up,
please review these pages, to get an idea what's involved:

http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Reviewing_a_Patch
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/RRReviewers

On the lighter side:

Please send me an email (without copying the list) if you are
available to review; feel free to include any information that might
be helpful in assigning you an appropriate patch.

To summarize where we are now:

54 patches are listed in the CF web page. Of those, 4 have already
been committed, 3 have been returned with feedback, and 1 has been
rejected -- leaving 46 patches active. Of these 8 are ready for
committer and 6 are waiting on author. That leaves 32 which
currently need review, of which 22 don't yet have anyone assigned
(or volunteered) to do the review.

-Kevin
