Certainly, yes. > If so, it wouldn't hurt to have some deliberate strategy for > bringing new developers in. Well, it might hurt. I do have a strategy: I force people eager to get their patches included into reviewing, with the 5:1 deal. I do consider it a useful strategy, and feel sorry that nobody else was willing to adopt it. However, it seems that this also has hurt, because now some people believe this is the only way to get patches reviewed (but perhaps that's not too bad, because before they believed there is no way at all to get patches reviewed...).
