</div>OK, got it. So, success critically depends on nova-core being willing<br>
to take review direction and priority setting from nova-drivers. That<br>
sort of assumption is part of why I think agile processes typically<br>
don't work in open source. We don't have the ability to direct people<br>
with consistent and reliable results.<br>
<br>
I'm afraid if people doing the review are not directly involved in at<br>
least ACKing the selection and commiting to review something, putting<br>
stuff in slots seems futile.<br>
