I understand you want people to get code done.

I completely agree, which is why *I'm* frustrated that it took hours to
get Gerrit working and then later ended up having to spend a few more
hours fighting with it after it changed silently.

Tools should be making our lives easier. Github/Gerrit should be easier
than LP/Bazaar, but that isn't the case right now.

I can understand your frustration and hopefully you can understand my
frustration.

Then hopefully we can figure out a way to avoid inflicting frustration
on others that will run into the same problems.
