Friends of the Tree
- Andrew Sutherland, for fixing bug 635765 and thereby making hg pushlog pages load much faster. But wait, there's more! This may also have fixed bug 508863, making it impossible to wedge a repository by canceling a push midway through, requiring IT to fix it! (submitted by the guilty party who filed an IT blocker at 23:00 on a Saturday for this reason)
