Hi Rolf, first of all, I am sorry that I can not review it, myself, since probability distributions are very far from my own field.
More experienced developers may correct me, but I thought that one of the responsibilities of the owner of a ticket is to approach potential reviewers, if it is apparent that nobody else has noticed the ticket. If the owner forgot about the ticket (holidays and stuff), I think it is perfectly fine if the author him- or herself asks on one of the sage lists (probably sage-devel is a good choice, or a specialised list if that exists for the given topic). If you know a potential reviewer, then you could ask that person by e- mail, of course. Note that you can add people as "Cc" on a ticket; so, if something changed, they'll be informed. I can understand your frustration. Some of my patches rotted on trac for months, for instance #9138, #11115 and #11342 (sorry for the ad...). Perhaps I am glorifying the past, but it seems to me that the development process used to be "snappier" a few years ago.
