Everybody should review (new mainboards), not only the platform maintainers. As boards consists of multiple parts: EC, SuperIO, Audio, Ethernet, DRAM, GPIOs, ... you can only review the part you are an expert in. Of course everybody is short on time and as most boards do not have a good documentation (from firmware developer perspective) or schematics publicly available, it makes reviewing hard and time consuming. I don't have a good solution for that, except request reviews in regular intervals.
