Obviously not for random tools.  But if there are a few tools that (nearly)
everyone agrees useful and worthy to integrate with the mailing lists workflow,
I would like to.

Now it seems I was much more optimistic that others.

What I mean with the required human opinions for the AI reviews are not
necessarily only for fixups, but also sharing of reviews that the human and the
tool are aligned.

But in this case, I was sharing the review results seems incorrect, or doesn't
need deep dive at least:

As I also mentioned above, I agree.  And seems in this case I was much more
optimistic that others, or hallucinated ;)

Andrew replied this is not such official and recommended action for mm.  I once
thought this could be the official one for DAMON only.  But in any case, I now
understand this can look crazy, odd or excessive to some people including those
that I believe.  I will think about a better way to use this tool, while
keeping your inputs in my mind.

Thank you so much for sharing your opinions, Greg.


Thanks,
