This again becomes a part of the undefinied priority concept. It's hard
to come up with a list of priorities all at the beginning of the cycle
so, conflicting priority items may get missed every now and then. I hope
the dashboard will help however, this is more of a people problem than a
process problem what Victor is describing.

To solve that, here's the context:
If a change is either big, has a spec associated with it or doesn't have
a bug associated it is unlikely to catch the notice of the cores easily
let alone other reviewers. Something that would help is to propose a
topic to the weekly meeting and if you can't attend delegate it to
someone who will -- I have seen it help catch attention of the cores.
Specs and other big changes are often discussed at the drivers meeting
so that's a good place to bring this up too. It doesn't have to be a
long one, just a heads up suffices many a times.
