I'm in a slow month this month so timing is good from my perspective.
Next month will be difficult again.

My concern is that these issues have been discussed but have not yet
been resolved in terms of project specific process. That's just a
matter of going through the process a couple more times. This is
likely to happen in the coming months and so I don't see a problem.
Furthermore, I recognise the community listen to and respond to mentor
feedback in a positive and constructive manner, so I perceive no long
term problems.
