In the past, it took two years to merge my first PAUSE on Plack branch into the master and three years to merge the next PAUSE on Mojolicious (actually, two years to deploy and another year to merge). Now the question was: how long would it take to merge the next big thing, multifactor authentication for PAUSE? Two years, three years, or maybe four years this time? I already had a two-year-old draft branch and initially wished to merge it this year. However, things went differently.| blogs.perl.org
Release blocker triage continued, across two days. First we caught up with a dozen of new issues and pull requests, of which we identified one more PR as a small release blocker. The majority of our time was then spent considering each release blocker in depth and updating tickets with decisions and/or requests as we went along. A number of small blockers got resolved even during the course of our extended meeting.| blogs.perl.org
