We are now a few days in on Commitfest 2023-07, so it seems about time to send
the (by now) customary statistics email on how we are doing, and where we
ideally want go.
There are 350 patches registered in this commitfest, with 150 of those having
been moved from the past commitfest. If it's not the record, then it's at
least in the top-5 of all times. Currently the breakdown looks like this:
Needs review: 181
Waiting on Author: 48
Ready for Committer: 38
Committed: 64
Moved to next CF: 3
Withdrawn: 5
Returned with Feedback: 11
Looking at the closed statuses, that means we've already closed 23.7% of all
patches. Now, that is heavily influenced by bug-fixes being registered in this
CF being closed ahead of the CF as part of the v16 cycle, but it's still very
good. Let's focus on reducing the number of patches in Needs Review in order
to get them closer to being committable!
I will shortly do a patch triage and send to the list to try and solicit work
on patches which has promise, but have gone stale or slowed down for whatever
reason.
The success of PostgreSQL relies on all of us working together. If you haven't
yet signed up for reviewing a patch, please consider doing so. If you are
signed up and actively reviewing, thank you very much!
