Thanks, I think that's helpful information.

That is my concern as well.

I (and hopefully the people who agreed to help with patch-chasing) can
work on this, but given that there are 5 that are Ready for Committer
and probably as many more that are close, and further given that in
the past 7 days exactly 1 patch from the CommitFest has been
committed, I'm not sure there's a real problem here. If you
commit/bounce all 5 of those afternoon I will spend the evening making
sure you have a few more to tackle tomorrow.
