Hello hackers,

Here's a quick status report after the first week (I think only about
10 commits happened during the week, the rest were pre-CF activity):

status | count
------------------------+-------
Committed | 32
Moved to next CF | 5
Needs review | 146
Ready for Committer | 7
Rejected | 2
Returned with feedback | 2
Waiting on Author | 29
Withdrawn | 8

I wondered about reporting on the number of entries that didn't yet
have reviewers signed up, but then I noticed that there isn't a very
good correlation between signed up reviewers and reviews. So instead,
here is a list of twenty "Needs review" entries that have gone a long
time without communication on the thread. In some cases there has
been plenty of review, so it's time to make decisions. In others,
there has been none at all.

If you're having trouble choosing something to review, please pick one
of these and help us figure out how to proceed.

If you have submitted a patch and it's in "Waiting for author" state,
please aim to get it to "Needs review" state soon if you can, as
that's where people are most likely to be looking for things to
review.

I have pinged most threads that are in "Needs review" state and don't
apply, compile warning-free, or pass check-world. I'll do some more
of that sort of thing, and I'll highlight a different set of patches
next week.
