Hey man, I'm probably the developer most actively trying to improve the
NM process.  I know it's in bad shape right now.  However, I find it
very odd to complain now though there has been improvement recently
when, for the previous 6 months, the queue was completely stuck.

Unfortunately, things aren't likely to change until after sarge's
release since everyone is preoccupied with getting sarge ready.  Please
continue to be patient.
