Well, personally I was paying approximately zero attention to the
commitfest for most of February, because I was occupied with trying to
get back-branch releases out, as well as some non-Postgres matters.
CF items are now back to the head of my to-do queue; you may have
noticed that I'm busy with Korotkov's array stats patch.  I do intend to
take this one up in due course (although considering it's not marked
Ready For Committer yet, I don't see that it deserves time ahead of
those that are).

As for when we'll be done with the CF, I dunno, but since it's the last
one for this release cycle I didn't think that we'd be arbitrarily
closing it on any particular schedule.  It'll be done when it's done.
