Agreed.  It would, of course, look bad if there were a ton of
obviously blanket approval reviews.  But the many packagers @redhat
are definitely part of the community and their help should be
welcomed.

toss various objects across the cubicles at any co-workers who've been
too busy to reply to merge reviews yet? :)
