Thanks Senthil!  And thanks Berker who also reviewed the branch.

It's a fair point.  Maybe we shouldn't change the setting just yet.  (As I
said, I was being impatient. :)  Brett's argued for leaving the current
workflow alone for a month to see how things shake out, and it wouldn't be
unreasonable to do that here too.  Maybe having things on GH will eventually
improve the review bottleneck, but if we're too eager to turn off that
requirement, we may not find out.

Maybe we should bring back MvL's 5-for-1 offer. :)

Cheers,
