For any reviews there are 2 aspects - general coding guidelines and domain 
knowledge. Based on the current backlog of PRs, I feel that whenever some 
domain knowledge is required to review a PR and there are not enough reviewers 
for that, the PR waits for a longer time. That's why I had suggested that if a 
bug fix PR is green (as per travis) but there isn't enough LGTMs beyond a 
specified time then there should be some exception to the rule.

Subject: Re: [DISCUSS] PR list length

I agree as well and since I started this thread a lot of work is being done to 
keep the list as short as possible. I am still worried that the list is 
growing, it has over a few weeks and though the growth stopped during the 
lifetime of this thread I hope we can keep up the discipline to keep it short. 
At the moment it depends on us few which is not a future proof situation.
