PRs don't usually get "assigned" (at least away from ports, where being a maintainer implies this). The issue is too much a matter of how much time a given person has, what else they're working on, whether they're taking a break from committing, etc. I think the present system works OK much of the time. The problem is more a matter of hands to do the work, and imposing additional structures isn't likely to help (and may hinder) problem resolution. -- Robert Nordier To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
