That was my concern too, but seeing the immediate hostility I got about asking about the review process I decided not to mention it. I'd be interesting to see how gitweb support pans out given this initial hostility to inquiry of accountability. Over the years I've seen that the best support and accountability has been had when the maintainer is not the main contributor/developer, especially for shared development. Otherwise personal preferences over feature X and Y come into play and then things get ugly. This is why you were such a good maintainer of gitweb. Luben
