I see :-).  Funny I didn't see this procedure mentioned in the patch
submission guidelines ;-)

You don't have to be an expert to review patches.  The following

My own patch does not include documentation.  I assume documentation would
only be needed for patches that add new functionality (as opposed to fixing
problems)?

3.  Repeat until you've commented on five patches.

I might try to do this, as time permits.
