What's the big rush? Just a month ago, the library was in sucha state, that you canceled the review. Now you just "finished" a ready-for-review library on the day the review was supposed to start? And the review is supposed to have started even though the review manager was so busy that he could not even send a single mail. Personally, I would wait for at least two more months for the dust to settle, asking a few people whose opinion I value, what they think of the new version. And if they give me a green light, then, and only then, I would ask the review manager to start a new review (which might take a few more months to start depending on the review manager's schedule). You also mentioned:
A later *internal* implementation will be completely new, but that isn't important to this review because little external changes. To me this is another indicator that maybe it is a bit early.
One of the aspects of the review is to look at the implementation. Sounds like we can drop that item for this review, since it won't last too long anyway? Don't get me wrong, maybe you are just the victim of your own honesty and full disclosure policy (admirable traits, btw). But judging by the mails you wrote in the last few days, if it were my library, I would kindly ask to treat this more like a pre-review of the new design. The full review would then be done once the implementation is as you want it. Just my 2ct. Best, Roland
