My 2¢. We need more folks reviewing tickets and providing feedback and testing the submitted patches. There are many low complexity patches out there that are in need of reviews. Any help in that direction is appreciated. Even if they aren't familiar with the part of codebase, a first review gives them the opportunity to learn. Obviously a committer who is familiar with that part of the codebase can do a second review and commit it.
