Thank you, Platonides; I kept meaning to mention this hurdle on the
list but forgot. New developers don't know who they should add as a
reviewer for their commits or if they should be adding any reviewers
at all. Thus, it seems likely that it will take more time for their
commits to be reviewed (as Niklas says, Siebrand and his fellows *are*
awesome at getting to these when they can). But this is frustrating
before they understand what kinds of backlog everyone else personally
has and how to best work within such an environment.

Cheers,
