   5. a discussion of what should happen to get a patch merged goes on, the consensus is that you need to add a committer as a reviewer to get their attention, currently that is edwarnicke, ttkacik, and rovarga_ (it seems) (colindixon, 16:22:21)
   6. edwarnicke says to whack him upside the head if there’s a patch that seems to be atrophying (colindixon, 16:25:17)
   7. flaviof asks is drafts are better than “DO NOT MERGE” patches, but edwarnicke and colindixon note that drafts are not visible except to people who are directly added as reviewers, so they’re different (colindixon, 16:26:24)
   8. ACTION: edwarnicke to start a thread on the mailing list about how to get your patches in (or delegate it) (colindixon, 16:28:25)

3. conversation about use of Akka (colindixon, 16:36:34)
   1. Madhu asks if Akka is a must (as was stated on the mailing list) or merely a good choice (colindixon, 16:36:47)

4. bug scrub (colindixon, 16:38:27)

   2. https://bugs.opendaylight.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1125 - just added this into the pile. Its a nice small good example of how to dig into something and chase it down. (edwarnicke, 16:45:05)
