The std.parallelism review process kind of ended up the same way, by
accident/evolution instead of design. I think this is a good
modification to our review process: A 2-3 week initial review, then
instead of an immediate vote the review manager may postpone the vote
until after the next review queue item. This should happen if major
changes are suggested and gives the author time to make changes. Then,
have a one-week combined final review/vote as you suggest.
One of the things that I found frustrating in the std.parallelism review
process was that a lot of (very good) suggestions came in late in the
review process when I felt like I had to rush to get them implemented in
time for the vote. The more we can mitigate this, the better.
