4. Submit a patch, review a patch.

Don't review patches? Don't submit patches.

There will always be patches desirable-enough that they will be reviewed 
whether or not the submitter reviewed other patches.


Correct.

And there will often be patches that generate so little interest that they’ll 
never be reviewed no matter how many other patches the submitter reviews.


Correct.

That said, it’s not a bad heuristic, and I suspect that someone who reviews 
patches is more likely to get their patch reviewed. But obviously there are no 
guarantees.

Well a good portion of humanity is built on karma. I do for you, you do for me. It isn't explicit, that is just bad taste but there is an implicit desire that gets built up to help people when you are also being helped.

Sincerely,

JD
