It was an interesting experience this time, having two people doing it. I think the communication overhead may have overwhelmed any help we were giving each other. Perhaps if there had been more, larger series, it might have made sense to assign somebody to track a topic and its iterations, and then finally sign off on it being ready. But being -rc period, things seem to have settled down, and most patches were one-off bugfixes all over the place.
