Hi Hackers,
I have a question for the community. While waiting for feedback on my
own patches, I was wondering: is there value in me reviewing other
people's patches, even though I am not a committer here?
I know committers are extremely busy, and I have some spare time to help
the community. I believe I can provide meaningful technical reviews and
help reduce the load on maintainers.
I’ve been around here for over a year, and sometimes it feels like the
project lacks a dedicated coordinator to direct contributor and reviewer
efforts. Because of this, I'm not always sure which patches deserve
attention first.
I saw that reviews by third parties (not contributors and committers)
are included in the commit log header.
In general, I want to understand how useful this is for committers.
Thanks!
