Hello,

This is a (half-)joke suggestion.

There are currently 19 libraries in the review schedule  ( 
http://www.boost.org/community/review_schedule.html ) which need a 
review manager (yes, including mine). Some of them have been there for 
years.

Instead of focusing on getting people to write new libraries, which 
could potentially end up stuck in the review schedule (like AFIO), why 
don't we focus on getting the reviews for the ones that are already 
there. Or at least revising the review process.

For example, I would be willing to review some of these libraries, but I 
am not qualified to be a review manager (since I am not very active in 
the community).

I am not saying that most (or any) of the libraries stuck in review 
limbo, should pass the process, but some of them at least deserve a look 
(again, like AFIO).
