I'm sorry to have wasted people's time with this mess. If I lose my
temper with someone, that doesn't need airing here.
I understand that the patch review process is losing --- perhaps
symbol table patches have fared worse than patches to other areas.
I'd honestly welcome constructive suggestions for how to improve this.
In theory, I have time set aside on my schedule for reviewing patches.
In reality, I tend to be more responsive to deadline pressure than
quotidian responsibilities. The people who can tend their patch queue
properly while still finishing contracts on time really impress me.
