No drama, please. So many words in this mail of yours. The time could have been spent better on swapping reviews, reading the process documentation and fixing the bugzilla tickets, too. Waiting passively leads to something seldomly. The ticket has not even been visible in the needsponsor queue because the fedora-review flag set to '?' means there is a reviewer working on it. > unassigned.
