Yes.  See also my suggestion [1] that we do a Reviewer "Honour Roll"
or "Hall of Fame" at the end of the CF, also published in the PWN.

One of the rewards for getting a patch into the tree is having your
name immortalised in the commit log.  There's no such compensation for
reviewing patches.

I think creating incentives to review is going to be more potent and
more enjoyable for everyone involved than punitive measures.

Cheers,
BJ
