12:30 Krock we're at 100 PR's again. do something :P
12:33 MTDiscord <wsor4035> Arguably the do something should have been 3 years ago
12:34 Krock never too late
13:43 MTDiscord <josiah_wi> As long as there is a large community base contributing PRs and a small subset of them are core devs who can review, you will continue to have a gradual increase in PR backlog.
13:45 MTDiscord <josiah_wi> A two approval requirement is also a much greater commitment from the review team. Even my work team finds it tough to keep up with a two approval requirement, and most of us are working full time.
13:45 MTDiscord <josiah_wi> If we can't keep our PR count low you don't even have a chance.
13:48 MTDiscord <josiah_wi> You can admit you don't have the resources to review everyone's contributions and be selective about what you review to get the best changes in, or you can train the community to be more organized and participate in helping the review process go smoothly.
13:50 MTDiscord <josiah_wi> Is there any other action you can take?
13:52 Krock Contributors are kindly invited to test the PRs and share their experience with them
13:53 Krock many PRs are also stuck on finding a consensus, where modder opinions would come in handy
13:53 MTDiscord <josiah_wi> Do modders know that?
13:54 Krock I as a modder do know that 8)
13:54 Krock the PRs would be locked if we didn't want feedback
13:55 Krock to be fair, a simple "LGTM" would not help much. It's about properly judging the concept, reviewing, testing the code
13:56 Krock I've seen server owners provide inputs on certain PRs in the past, which were effectively tested in production.
14:01 aliasstilltaken Feel free to poke server owners if there is something they specifically should test.
14:06 Krock #16339 might be a candidate, for example (requires new mapblocks to be generated). It's mostly a question of how good your world backups are. Just in case something goes wrong.
14:06 ShadowBot https://github.com/luanti-org/luanti/issues/16339 -- [Take 2] Prevent MapBlocks in generation from being unloaded by Montandalar
14:09 repetitivestrain well #16339 has been on my server since July without any issues
14:09 ShadowBot https://github.com/luanti-org/luanti/issues/16339 -- [Take 2] Prevent MapBlocks in generation from being unloaded by Montandalar
14:09 repetitivestrain for what it's worth
14:16 aliasstilltaken +1 will add 16339 to the my server. Any "test is successful if x,y and z is met" or "dont test in prod" ?
14:18 sfan5 re PR backlog: is it increasing long-term? I don't get that impression
14:18 Krock there's a "Testing needed" tag that could be used. However, in this case it's more of a "Testing appreciated, but not entirely necessary to get the PR merged"
14:19 Krock https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TD1TVZ47xZY&amp;t=18   152 open PRs in 2016

14:19 Krock Thanks ShadowBot
14:20 MTDiscord <wsor4035> Stays around 100 now, since that seems to be a point it gets mentioned and some prs handled
15:59 [MatrxMT] <Zughy> Our lowest was around 70, about a year ago
16:39 Mantar joined #luanti-dev
18:21 [MatrxMT] <birdlover32767> technically the lowest is 0
