[Python-Dev] "Five reviews to get yours reviewed"?

[Chris Angelico]

Way back in 2012, Martin Löwis declared a standing offer on this list
to get issue patches reviewed: review five issues and he'll review one
of yours. [1] Is that offer still around? Have any other devs made any
similar offer?

I have a couple of patches outstanding, notably issue 20249 [2], which
is a small change, has a patch, and has no activity or nosying since
its creation.

More importantly, if there is such an offer, it'd be great to mention
it somewhere, so people can know what they can do to move an issue
forward. (And preferably with a link somewhere to what it means to
review a patch - what it takes to make a useful and helpful review,
which I'm not entirely sure of at the moment.) If there's not, is it
something that could be considered? I'd love to see some downward
movement on the Open Issues figure, but am not really sure what I can
personally do to help.
