Early review takes on a different meaning in this context. I think the basic problem with the schedule at this point is that we're releasing six months past the planned date; kinda throws things off. The question is how to get back on track and avoid that for 8.5. You probably have a point in that some of the patches came from people who might have been able to help more in the review and commit process, but I think some people lack the confidence to take on that role; and with the features that dragged out the release half-way to what would have been our next release date, there probably aren't many who could have made useful contributions to the review process. -Kevin
