What can I do to get feedback on my pull request?

[meric]

I have made a pull request for django 6 months ago, but it doesn't seem to be getting much response so far.

What can I do to get more feedback as to what's wrong with it, and try to get it accepted?

Here is the pull request:

Isn't it the same idea proposed (and rejected) in this thread?:

Thanks, I'll reply to that thread. I posted my proposal 6 months before that post, would've been nice if they posted in my thread...

Jacob voted in favor of the feature (on the #16774 [1]ticket) and Adrian
voted -1 on that thread. But they were unaware of the existence of the ticket.

If it's gonna get in, you/we need to talk Adrian into dropping his -1 vote.

Is the 'vote' a majority or a consensus must be achieved?

[Jacob Kaplan-Moss]

Adrian's one of the BDFLs (I'm the other), so if he says "no" that stands.

Usually, we operate the way most open source projects do: "rough
consensus and working code". You've got the second ("working code") so
you need to work on the first, I think. Usually a strong consensus is
enough to override a committer's veto, even a BDFL veto, so if you can
show that this is a strong enough need, Adrian might drop his veto.

[For more on how we make decisions, see
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/internals/contributing/bugs-and-features/#how-we-make-decisions]

Of course, I'm putting words in Adrian mouth, so this is all just a
guess. It's possible that he's really against this, in which case
you're basically SOL.

Adrian, if you're still following this thread... maybe want to weigh
in on how we might convince you to drop that veto?
