I know I have never given a review but I feel that a 20 day period for 
reviews rather than a 10 day period for reviews would give potential 
reviewers, like me, a more comfortable zone in which to seriously look 
at potential Boost software and give one. I think that would be a good 
compromise between the present 10 day period, which seems to quick and a 
full month period which seems too long.
