[do not iterate too quickly]

After sending your patches out, it would be nice to give potential
reviewers at least 24 hours to ensure people anywhere on the globe
have a chance to comment, and a chance for you to respond to them,
before sending your next iteration.

When responding to a review comment that causes you to drastically
change the course of the series, it is nice to give potential
reviewers at least 24 hours to ensure they have a chance to voice
their opinions, before sending an updated series based on that
comment, because suggested changes in such a comment may be
controversial and deserve discussion. After seeing you spend some
time already to adjust to one opinion on such a discussion, others may
feel discouraged to make you redo your series again even whey they
think the suggested changes are not taking us in the right direction.
