Acutally appears to be good though... as these are fixes that he generated by testing... which is what he was told to do.

Please notice the warning about upcoming bugs is aimed at RC testers. They of course won't make it into the 6.13 release. Either they get fixed, or the work gets reverted.

Okay, I dont know Kent at all but I have heard a tremendous amount about him since BcacheFS started pushing in tree. There has been so much negativity surrounding him and everyone hating on him... I have to say though my respect for him is growing! He literally is not stopping! I would say 99% of people in his position would have given up a long time ago.

As a distant observer I have to say he is both a sucker for punishment but also a true zealot for his product. That is often a very strong combination for success!

wheres my drama?

Yay Kent! Good job on ramping up the testing, and apparently also dealing with the test results!

1 lead developer + ~15 others contribute to every release currently

other full-time developers already have funding secured, but they cannot take on full-time roles before the base is stabilized.
