Although I applaud the sentiment I think a more reasonable approach
would be (if Tom wanted) to have Tom pick 3-5 patches (or whatever) that
are his deal. That's it. No extra bubble activities for you. Except for
Buddha level oversight the rest falls on the rest of the community.

It isn't like we don't have at least 6 major contributors that can do
patch review... Alvaro, Greg, Neil, AndrewD, Heikki, and Magnus ... Not
to mention a slew of others who can at least lend a hand.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
