True but there is value in gather ideas beyond what we have already 
thought about since the concern about the long review queue is a ongoing 
thing. FESCo mentioned review-o-matic briefly recently as well

Apparently, people are still filing several new review requests each day 
and despite getting half a dozen new packages, every single day in 
rawhide, our package review queue is not reducing considerably. 
Review-o-matic can potentially take away the grunt work from the review 
process leaving reviewers to concentrate on the more interesting parts 
which requires human contextual intelligence. This probably will attract 
more reviews knowing that they don't have to do the boring parts.

Even without this review tool, I think that package maintainers should 
be doing more reviews in comparison to maintaining more packages at this 
point. With the new uberpackager process in place, sponsors hopefully 
won't be a bottle neck as much.
