<div dir="ltr"><div>William Casarin recently tweeted a link to the bitcoincore devs ACK system[1], which are<br><br><pre><code>Concept ACK - Agree with the idea and overall direction, but haven't reviewed the code changes or tested them.
utACK (untested ACK) - Reviewed and agree with the code changes but haven't actually tested them.
Tested ACK - Reviewed the code changes and have verified the functionality or bug fix.
ACK - A loose ACK can be confusing. It's best to avoid them unless it's a documentation/comment only change in which case there is nothing to test/verify; therefore the tested/untested distinction is not there.
NACK - Disagree with the code changes/concept. Should be accompanied by an explanation.

As for merging, I'm always very grateful when Ben does it -- though I agree that it would make more sense for me to do it when I can test-then-merge.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
