Thanks for all the hard work of CF managing!

Yeah, I've been annoyed by that too (not that I've not been guilty of
it myself). We should probably tell people not to add themselves as
reviewers unless they're actively planning to review soon, because it
discourages other people from reviewing the same item. Maybe also,
when a patch gets moved to the next CF, we should drop all reviewers
(ie make them sign up afresh if they're still interested).
