If one doesn't have any peers for a particular project, yes, clearly
there's no one to review. However we should be

PgUp/PgDown are the standard GNOME shortcuts for switching between

In general, more patch review is of course a good thing, and keeping a

Hi,
One of my goals for 2012 is to increase the number of patches I'm
reviewing myself, and more generally, even further increase the
