Hi Liliana,

No, that does not match my small experience.  Because often the issuer
is gone or not responding.  As a reviewer using the forge solution, I am
still able to pull the issuer branch and then resolve the conflicts if
any.

Using “our” workflow, I fail earlier in the process.  I am not able to
apply the patches against any branches (pull the PR somehow).  An
example:

        [bug#62202] [PATCH 0/21] Juliahub import script.
        https://issues.guix.gnu.org/msgid/871qlq89kz.fsf@ngraves.fr

Even before looking at it, I have to spend some time to find a way to
manually apply the patches.  Then, rebasing on the top of master could
lead to conflict but that another story and the same appears whatever
the workflow.

Nicolas did a cool job with this Julia importer, and because of this
first boring task, I am procrastinating and delaying to the eternal
tomorrow the review of the work.

Whatever the complexity of this task, there is no value for the project.

I read Ricardo’s message [1] as: our workflow is far to help us for
having smooth reviews so it’s hard to convince folks already familiar
with other workflows to adopt our.  Not saying that these other
workflows are better either.

Cheers,
simon
