Community question: who is interested in reviewing my pull requests?
I have taken on the burden of maintaining Backbone. I also happen to believe that ideally, each code change should be reviewed by somebody other than the author.
When somebody else submits a pull request (please do!), I can obviously review it. When I submit a pull request myself (which I expect to do a lot), it is not so obvious who might review it.
So far, I've been blindly @mentioning people who I thought (or hoped) might be interested in reviewing. I now feel that this pattern is not sustainable; I will miss people who are interested and annoy people who are not. Instead, I would like to actually know which people are interested in reviewing.
Of course, I'm hoping that expert contributors are interested, but non-expert reviewers are welcome, too. The more reviewers, the better.
- If you are interested in reviewing and you are already watching the repo so you will be aware of new pull requests, please leave a .
- If you are interested in reviewing and you would like to be
@mentioned to draw your attention, leave a . - If you welcome formal review requests (so you see "review requested" in your GitHub notifications), leave a ❤️. If you opt-in for this, please also leave a comment to let me know what you consider an acceptable frequency and how quickly you expect to be able to respond (on average).
- If you just feel like voting, leave a .
Text replies for other reasons also welcome, of course.
For the last time, a blind CC (sorry): @paulfalgout @ogonkov @GammaGames @chkpnt @jcbrand @karloscarweber @Rayraz @taburetkin @alanhamlett
