Andrew,
thanks for pointing this out. Engineering in Europe has code review in
priority #1 after fixing critical issues which block us from further
testing.
Overall, I think it should be simple. If developer didn't push the crowd to
review the patch linked to Low/Medium bug, and it didn't get merged by SCF
- then it should be moved to next milestone. SCF by its definition means
that code has to be in master for Low / Medium bugs, not on review.
Considering the fact that we have so many patches on review, I can propose
the following:
1. Actively ping each other to get those reviewed and merged
2. We can do an exception for those which have at least one +1 from some
developer, but were not addressed by core developer. In this case we can
allow the core developer to review and merge such patches by the end of the
week.
What we are trying to achieve is to limit the code flow into the master, so
avoiding possible regressions which could be introduced by Low/Medium bug
fixes.
Would it work?
Thanks,
