Bad idea. As soon as you force unwilling people to review packages, you 
will get hasty or bad reviews.

If people want to do reviews, great. They will put work into it and the 
reviews will be thorough.

maintainers is basically silent.
The list could be used however for announcements to maintainers.
Right now -extras is high volume and I for one don't have the time to 
really follow the list.
