You're not alone in that. Looking at fedora-package-announce archives:
Month			Published packages
March 2004: 		2
February 2004: 		14
January  2004: 		20
December 2003:		34
November 2003:		64

That's a rather alarming trend :(

Meanwhile the QA-queue keeps growing and growing, it's up to 374 entries. 
Now remember this :-P

How about a Fedora QA day? To
- get packages reviewed and published
- help new people get familiar with the process
