Review Manager Volunteers

Hi All,

Recently, we've seen a shortage of review managers: Joaquin has been looking for one for his bloom-filters library for a few weeks (now solved), and Dmitry recently withdrew his GDB debugging tools due to lack of review manager. Looking at the review schedule for the last few years[1] you'll find a number of repeated names and long-time contributors. In an effort to find new volunteers for review managers I would like to ask what are the showstoppers that keep you from wanting to be a review manager? Time, Training, Recognition, none of the above? I am genuinely curious in an effort to find new volunteers so we can continue to add great libraries to the project.

Thank you, and Happy Easter to those that celebrate.

Matt
