OK, my apologies, I "buried" this very important news in an email w/ the vague subject "Skypecon tomorrow: important agenda item!": Vincent Davis, to whom we owe much gratitude, is nearing completion of adding the two-review infrastructure to the doc Wiki! Accordingly, it is time to start actively recruiting technical and presentation reviewers. As announced previously (in an email different from the one referred to above) I have added a "Reviewer Standards and Recruitment Discussion<http://docs.scipy.org/numpy/Reviewer%20Standards%20and%20Recruitment%20Discu...>" (RSRD) page to the Wiki, and have since started it off w/ some comments on reviewer standards proffered by Joe H.; if you have any opinions on reviewer recruitment--be they on standards, procedures, or "other"--please voice them. To get the ball rolling: it has been suggested in the past (I forget by whom specifically) that we proceed by issuing on the lists (numpy-discussion, scipy-user, scipy-dev, and astropy) a formal recruitment announcement w/ the qualifications expected and desired of both types of reviewers, as well as the application procedure and a description of how reviewers will be selected. Joe has furnished us w/ some of the first on the RSRD page, but presently we are lacking specification of the latter two. I could simply draft such a recruitment announcement and put it up here for discussion, but there's (at least) one problem w/ that scenario: IMO, review and acceptance of applicants should be by a committee of at least two, preferably three "prominent" community members who, either by choice or due to, say, having been significant contributors of text to the docstrings, will not themselves be reviewer candidates, and at this time, no such committee exists (nor is there any expressed consensus w/ this applicant evaluation model). So, ideally, this email is a request that we begin a discussion and elaboration of my proposed applicant evaluation model, or at a minimum, a request for volunteers to step forward to be on a "Reviewer Applicant Review and Acceptance Committee." Thanks for your time and consideration, David Goldsmith Olympia, WA
