But that's the main problem, if you watch old DConfs they always 
said the same thing: "We have a lack of reviewers".

I pretty sure Walter/Andrei work on other things while at the 
same time trying to managing everything.

So while nobody with knowledge decide to step in to do a 
"pre-review" I don't think they will do it.
