I recently had a trivial patch to operations/puppet waiting for more than a month. When I noticed I hadn't added any Reviewer, and added to it, the changeset was fixed in the same day. But that also shows that nobody looked for new changes there.
Thank you, Platonides; I kept meaning to mention this hurdle on the list but forgot. New developers don't know who they should add as a reviewer for their commits or if they should be adding any reviewers at all. Thus, it seems likely that it will take more time for their commits to be reviewed (as Niklas says, Siebrand and his fellows *are* awesome at getting to these when they can). But this is frustrating before they understand what kinds of backlog everyone else personally has and how to best work within such an environment.
