I agree that it is the library author's responsibility to find a review manager, not the boost community. Based on what we see happening it is clear that the libraries that get reviewed and eventually accepted are the ones where the author is active and successful in finding a review manager for themselves.
There's a big deal of truth in that.
Indeed, and looking at https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/ReviewScheduleLibraries we might not be in such bad shape (no really!!), ignoring those reviewed and awaiting results we currently have:
* 4 scheduled for review. So I guess the process is working for these :) * 5 stalled waiting on other reviews (more than a few of these may well become unblocked soon). I don't have a problem with this, it's very clear on the page why they're blocked, and it's up to these authors to chivvy along the blocking proposal when required :) * 9 stalled waiting for a review manager - I get the sense that most of these are small submissions - perhaps a few of questionable value - and a few that seem to overlap. Perhaps we should have a "review sprint" and get some of the smaller submissions out of the way en mass?
Note that XInt is not listed on that page ;-) Do we need to have two pages with review schedule? - Volodya -- Vladimir Prus Mentor Graphics +7 (812) 677-68-40
