Congrats to everybody for the 2.0 release!
I'm particularly pleased with the progress we've made on fixing regressions, I didn't expect we'd get that many. Thanks all!
The master branch is now open for development again. I'll go through the patches that are still in the queue, but please resend any patch that had been marked Deferred.
I'll also resume the biweekly development release cycle, starting with release 2.1 on February 3rd.
Despite fierce competition, Michael Stefaniuc once again took the coveted job of Stable Branch Maintainer. He'll be making regular 2.0.x releases.
I've also implemented the patch reviewer assignment scheme that we discussed at WineConf. From now on, patches that stay in the queue unreviewed for a week will be assigned a reviewer automatically. The algorithm is prioritizing people who said they have some knowledge about the area (the P: entries in the MAINTAINERS file), before grabbing someone at random from the wildcard entry.
If you feel that there are areas where you could help reviewing patches, but don't feel comfortable putting yourself up as maintainer, please consider adding an entry for yourself as a knowledgeable person.
If you are asked to review a patch, and you think it looks good but don't feel that you know enough to sign off on it, please just send a reply saying "looks OK to me" or something like that. I may then ask someone else to have a further look, or do it myself. Any review helps, even without a full signoff.
Looking forward to 3.0 :-)
