So on one hand we have debian developers who lack time to review new
packages and on the other hand maintainers who are eagerly awaiting a
review or sponsorship of their package. Perhaps maintainers should
stand up and review some packages of their peers? One could even
change the template to a request for review for *new* packages, and
make it a request for sponsorship only after a successful review?
