I realize that many people here are (rightly!) concerned with burdening patch authors with more steps that they have to follow. But the current system is serving new patch authors very poorly. If they get attention, it's much more likely to be because somebody saw their email and wrote back than it is to be because somebody went through the CommitFest and found their entry and was like "oh, I should review this". Honestly, if we get to a situation where a patch author is sad because they have to click a link every 2 months to say "yeah, I'm still here, please review my patch," we've already lost the game. That person isn't sad because we asked them to click a link. They're sad it's already been N * 2 months and nothing has happened.
