I've certainly spent more time reviewing code in the last 2 dev cycles, not least because I need something todo while waiting for my own code submissions to get reviewed & merged (which feels like it is taking longer & longer). Despite the huge efforts in review we're barely denting the flow and are having to get ever better at saying no to proposed features to cope. > Maybe there's an opportunity to get cores to mentor non-cores to do > the code production, freeing up review cycles ? As a core dev I want to feel that I'm still able to do valuable code submission myself, while also doing the important code review work. IOW, I don't want to end up with core team job requiring 100% of time to be spent on review cycles, as from my POV that ends up with little to no job satisfaction. Core needs to be able to maintain a balance between doing review and being able to scratch the itch in their own areas of coding interest.
