Hi All,
You do all realise that we are going about this, to use some British vernacular, arse-about-tit
Everyone agrees that the current U-Boot review workflow 'has issues' (and has had issues for quite some time). The first attempt at overcoming these issues was Patchwork. I personally think that that ended up being far less successful than we hoped
Maybe it's time to swing around back and talk about what's wrong with our current tools then.
What I don't like about patchwork: - Some patches just don't make it in. - Sometimes discussions can be a bit hard to follow there, but that's what real mail list archives are for.
That's it. The queue can get unwieldy if you don't check the unassigned patches daily, but I don't see how another tool is going to fix the underlying problem of people not using the tool frequently.
What I like about patchwork: - Bundles. - Everything is mailbox format / git am'able.
