What is the qemu patch review policy anyway?

We don't really have a coherent policy. Suggestions for improvement are always appreciated.

   There are no
"Reviewed-by:" included in the actual commits,

Reviewed-by/Ack-by's are pretty helpful for me. In terms of including them in commit messages, if there's a strong feeling that that would be helpful then it's something I can look at doing but it also requires a fair bit of manual work during commit.

  and the requirement
for a positive review also seem to vary a lot, up to the point that
some commiters commit code that has never hit a public mailing list
before.

That really shouldn't happen and if it does, please point it out on the list.

Anthony Liguori
