We run hot and cold about being proactive at fixing things, and we've been somewhat cold for a while now. Part of the problem is that this submission process is very very heavyweight compared to other projects I contribute to. Not sure what to do about that since there's a reluctance to move away from it. Or alternatively, I'm somehow making it too hard. A lot of the upstreaming work that's stalled would be ideal to tell claude to do, but I'm unsure the project's stance on using claude to move code, and git log 5 different trees to get the original author(s) of the code and make trivial compile tweaks.
