In composing my email to c.l.py today asking for new developers I did a quick browse of both the bugs and patches on SF. There are, as I recall, around 300 open bugs and 150 patches. About have the bugs and two-thirds of the patches are not assigned. I didn't look at the submission dates, but I'll wager there are more than a few that are more than two months old.

Hence the need for more "processing power".
