Early commitfests recognized a rule that patch authors owed one review per
patch registered in the commitfest. If authors were holding to that, then
both submissions and reviews would slow during vacations, but the neglected
fraction of the commitfest would be about the same. I think it would help to
track each author's balance (reviews_done - reviews_owed).
+1 for tracking this.
Yeah, I agree we should be stricter about this rule, but I'm somewhat
skeptical about tracking it in the CF app - judging patch and review
complexity seems quite subjective, etc.
BTW when review is done? When first revision is published? Or when patch is
committed\rollbacked?
When the review is owed? At the moment when patch is submitted? Or when it is
committed?
I think the rule is roughly that when you submit a patch to a CF, you're
expected to review a patch of comparable complexity in the same CF. It's
not tied to whether the patch is committed, etc.
