digitalmars.D - [spec] Small or large updates

Hi,

I would prefer to submit small pull requests that do not take 
much time to review and can be merged quickly - and this way work 
through the spec. Is this okay or is it better to make large pull 
requests with a whole bunch of changes?

Thanks

As a reviewer I much prefer smaller PRs, not so much because they are easier to review (I mean its nice, don't get me wrong) but the error messages you get if you muck something up are much easier to pinpoint in smaller PRs. You can get most of the benefits of larger PRs from telling the reviewers what you're woking on an what they can expect to come next. If for some reason that doesn't work submitting multiple PRs that split the changes is also a good option. Thanks Nic

Small and meaningful is beautiful.
