Understood. That's fantastic, really, because you'll be able to handle some of the overall load and also learn the general process of running a CFM. The first thing to do is go through and triage the current set of patches to identify where they're at, if they are in a good state, or if there is something missing. Typically, we push pretty hard on authors of patches to make sure that their patches apply cleanly and are registered properly in the CF app. To that point, we should go through the 'Needs review' patches and review their threads to see if the patches still apply (often, if they don't, someone will have said so on the thread; if not, it'd be nice if we could verify if they do or don't still apply cleanly). In doing so, any threads which seem to have stalled could use a bit of suggestion or insight into how it might move forward. To the extent that you're able to do that, great, but if not, please bring them to my attention. I'll start in on this soon and hopefully that will give you a bit of a "feel" for how to do so. If that works and you feel comfortable doing so, let's chat about which section of patches you could take on (maybe start with the 'Documentation' section, as that only has a few patches..?) and if that goes well then we can see about what other section(s) you could help out with. Thanks for volunteering to help out with moving this commitfest forward! Thanks again! Stephen
