+# Reopening Reviews
+
+Sometimes, a review you've submitted may fall through the cracks.
+In general, we will close reviews on [Review Board](https://reviews.apache.org)
+that show no activity for several months.  Before you reopen the review,
+consider taking the following steps to avoid a repeat scenario:
+
+* Make sure there is a [JIRA 
issue](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/mesos/)
+  associated with your review.  The JIRA should be "accepted" by another
+  member of the community and you should be assigned to the issue.
+* Check in with the [community](/community) and see if there is interest.
+  * For bug fixes or documentation updates, you should
+    [contact the maintainer(s)](committers.md).
+  * For improvements or new features, you should [find a 
shepherd](submitting-a-patch.md)
+    to collaborate on your design and review.
+* Update your review.  Chances are, the codebase has changed significantly
+  since you last uploaded the review.  Also make sure your review's summary
+  is sensible and the description explains the problem and proposed solution.
