I agree. Given your limited computing power, you are the very last person who should be running Patchy. Please stop doing so. We will let submitted patches accumulate without reviews until somebody else starts doing this. If there are any more Critical issues, then of course this will delay 2.16. If there are any new contributors who want to get reviews, they will be turned away disappointed. If Janek starts submitting patches, they will go without review and will not be pushed. We have tried a "soft approach" to get volunteers for this vital task. It's time to take a "hard approach". - Graham PS if you want to run Patchy on your own patches, then by all means do so. But please refuse to check other people's patches, no matter how urgent the bug or how much the contributor pleads for reviews. _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
