I'm actually curious what the "Will merge to 'master'" and "Will merge to 'next'" are intended to mean in general. I thought it meant that the topic would be merged the following week barring further discussion, but that hasn't always been the case and a quick look at origin/todo suggests it's not at all uncommon for my assumption to be wrong -- but that leaves me wondering what the intent actually is. In particular, I'm curious if there is anything I'm unaware of that I should be doing that I'm not but which would help make topics (particularly the big ones) work more smoothly.

Thanks, Elijah
