Giving me credit for this is like giving credit the cable for
electricity. I just let the great work of others flow.
It's a team effort, but the processing of pull requests has been a
definite
bottleneck. I'd say that for Phobos, 90+% of the time it's either you or
me
who merges them, so if either of us is slow about it and/or another
Phobos dev
is needed to review a particular request, then pull requests tend to
languish.
It's even worse for druntime, since a lot of the time, Sean needs to get
involved (particularly since some of us feel a bit unqualified reviewing
and
merging some of the critical stuff in druntime), and he seems to be
very, very
busy (though with Martin Nowak recently added as a committer for
druntime, the
situation may improve). So, the fact that you took the time to review and
merge so many pull requests had a big impact.

When I mentioned this post on IRC he specifically requested to be left out
of it. So I did. However, I personally feel that his willingness to get in
there and swing his +50 Hammer of Merging did in fact have a big impact on
the successes of yesterday.
