The friendly reminder is so we don't forget that we are blocked by the issue. Also, a small and friendly ping the the core devs that made the changes in the first place that require this fix to get involved in the issue, as the process is blocked by changes they authored or reviewed and merged.

Regarding the work itself, Erlend has created a bunch of pull requests that cover most of it, I am reviewing them as fast as possible but as you said there is a lot to do so it certainly would welcome more reviews.

Thanks for your help,

I took a quick look at that issue. My cursory understanding is that there's a gigantic list of work that just needs seasoned CPython core devs to power through--specifically, implementing full GC protocol for a long list of extension types that (I'm assuming) happen to hold references to other objects. Is this friendly reminder your way of asking for volunteers to carve off a chunk and do the work?

Cheers,
