Of the fourteen I signed up for, 10 are now marked Committed or
Returned with Feedback.  Of the remaining four, there are two that
could use more eyes:

MULTISET functions
Change pg_last_xlog_receive_location not to move backwards

A few other ones that could use more reviewers include:

range types
key locks
widen scale factor limit from pgbench

And your patch could probably use another reviewer too, if anyone else
is looking for stuff to help with:

log_csv_fields ; add current_role log option

And there are a few patches with no reviewer at all.

PL/Python invalidate composite argument functions
PL/Python tracebacks
contrib/btree_gist  (submitted very late)
SQL/MED - file_fdw

I'll work on this one.

I'll take a look at this one too, but I'm not that familiar with the
xlog code, etc, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to comment on
correctness...

If I can get through the others, I'll try and come back and look at
these.

I was already starting to look at this one, actually. :)

Not sure if it counts if I review it. ;)

I thought from the other threads that we had someone working the
PL/Pyton patches..? :/

Looks like this one might just be committable w/o additional review, but
if it's still hanging around, I might be able to help.

Ditto on this.

Alright, I've marked myself as a reviewer for the ones I'll look at in
the next couple days.  The others are up for grabs for others, any
takers on additional reviewers for them?
Thanks,

I'd happily jump in and look into one of those, but before mid of next week 
i really have no spare time to come up with something :(

I've just corrected the status of a few patches in the CommitFest
application.  In particular, I set the following back to Needs Review.

SQL/MED - postgresql_fdw
Self-tuning checkpoint sync spread
determining client_encoding from client locale

If anyone can jump in, that would be great.
