 And that one sums up the whole problem. Take a step back, read what you 
 wrote. Then read your initial mail. What you describe here and what you 
 did is *not* the same. 
  
 You did not initially "send a reminder" to review MRs. That would have 
 been something along "Hey people, there are so many open MRs, before you 
 upload, please include a check if your package repository contains one 
 or more. Should your workflow not be optimized for it consider dealing 
 with those that you got and then disabling them, if need be. But maybe 
 you find that they are a useful tool." 
  
 What you send is a manager-style command: "There may be MRs, remember to 
 check them before you upload!". 
  
 And since then you insist on the latter being the right thing, because 
 you seemingly can not fathom that there are people who may not like the 
 MR workflow. They must be wrong, they can not have a good reason for 
 that, so bully them into accepting them anyways. 
  
 And you managed to even piss off rra with your insistence, that ought to 
 be the last warning signal that the chosen way is wrong. 
  
  
 So please, to repeat my first line: Take a step back. And possibly have 
 a restart on this.
