......@@ -73,11 +73,20 @@ These types of merge requests need special consideration:
and a dedicated team with front-end, back-end, and UX.
* **Small features**: any other feature request.
**Large features** must be with a maintainer **by the 1st**. It's OK if they
aren't completely done, but this allows the maintainer enough time to make the
decision about whether this can make it in before the freeze. If the maintainer
doesn't think it will make it, they should inform the developers working on it
and the Product Manager responsible for the feature.
**Large features** must be with a maintainer **by the 1st**. This means that:
* There is a merge request (even if it's WIP).
* The person (or people, if it needs a frontend and backend maintainer) who will
ultimately be responsible for merging this have been pinged on the MR.

enough time to make the decision about whether this can make it in before the

The maintainer can also choose to assign a reviewer to perform an initial
review, but this way the maintainer is unlikely to be surprised by receiving an
MR later in the cycle.
**Small features** must be with a reviewer (not necessarily maintainer) **by the
3rd**.
