Yes, we have different opinions. My personal take is to wait a week before you email python-dev if there has been no activity. That is enough time for people interested in the patch to get to it as we all have different schedules. Any faster and it feels like noise on the list to me.

Ach.  I hit 'send' too soon.  I also wanted to say: it seemed quite clear to me that Martin specifically meant "simply issues that had a patch ready to go".  Quoting him exactly:

Please understand that setting the state of an issue to "review" may *not* be the best way to trigger a review - it may be more effective to post to python-dev if you truly believe that the patch can be committed as-is.
