Hey,
I mentioned in [1] that some "Scheduled and regular collaboration on IRC
to review patches" might help both get some patches reviewed, but help
get more people involved in reviewing patches, even if they haven't done
so before.

The suggestion came to do this on a Friday, and I have some time
tomorrow (Friday the 18th) that I can set aside to be on IRC and try and
help.
Thanks, this sounds like a great initiative, and I'll try to drop by. I'm
in North America though, so I might be a little tardy (despite how much
fun the 4am Guix Day was!).
On the topic of patch review, I was recently asked how I reviewed a
proposed Go upgrade. I responded on the bug tracker [0]. I'd be interested
in hearing critiques on the method I used. It might be nice to collect
some recipes for reviewing different kinds of changes in the cookbook :)
