And I had the impression the serious reviews were done and fine; the only issue would be demonstrating its working fine with other series, where I was also worrying about conflicts with brians series. And to address that, I'd just send series in small sizes. > Sorry, but I am behind ;-) Is there anything that a contributor can help with that eases refactoring series in flight? Personally I find these refactorings not as rewarding as new features or fixing bugs, and additionally the risk of conflict rises, whereby the maintainer is likely to push back to the contributor to "please rebase", and rebasing with just textual conflicts is also not rewarding. Is there anything process wise that we can do to make refactoring easier for contributors? Sorry for the miscommunication, though, Thanks, Stefan
