Looks like Andrei is going to be a speaker there as well, so Phobos
fixes might be a bit slow as well (though we have a team of other
committers who could alleviate that).

And have them all green and ready to merge by the time he gets back --
the autotester appears to be experiencing load problems recently, so it
would be nice to give it some time to catch up on all the pulls.

It should make the next release happen sooner... but I'm not sure about
smoother, though. A higher rate of code changes usually means more
potential regressions with the associated chaos that follows thereafter.
