to be a review manager? Time, Training, Recognition, none of the above?
I think the requirement to be an expert or at least very knowledgeable in the problem domain is a big part of why. Personally, I do not see myself qualified to judge on the qualities of the recently proposed libraries.
I agree, and.. I've wondered about that requirement. Is it really needed? If an established Boost developer has a good amount of professional experience they are likely to be able to tackle most programming domains at the level needed for managing a review. Should we reconsider that requirement? For example I would consider myself to know enough to manage the Bloom review. But... And, as always, time is limited, too.
Yes, that aspect also gets in the way of me volunteering to manage or review anything. -- -- René Ferdinand Rivera Morell -- Don't Assume Anything -- No Supongas Nada -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net
