Given the difficulty of finding reviewers, are you arguing we
shouldn't try to make things even easier? Yes, it's not to bad ([copy
the url, qimport, qpush] * n, build, test, run doctests, qpop, ...),
but could be a lot better. Oh, and by "test" I mean not doctests, but
interactively test, where it's more of a pain to context switch and
wait for the build to complete. I'd rather be reading the code and say
"hmm... I wonder if this works..." and just try it out.
