<p dir="ltr">Don't forget that no-one is paid for reviewing PRs, so it's all volunteer time contributed by devs/their employers. It's a big call to say we should work harder on this ;)</p>
<p dir="ltr">Some things to note:</p>
<p dir="ltr">- we've had a TON of PRs this cycle. Development has been very active and I actually don't think I've ever seen so much activity in the git list. Despite this, we still managed to review, fix and mergeĀ a huge number of requests (special credit to Matthias for his phenomenal effort) during the cycle and pre-freeze. <br>
- quite a lot of the PRs are fixes, not features, so they were de-prioritised till after freeze.</p>
