I am fortunate that most of my patches have been reviewed in a timely fashion, but I understand Bob's frustration. The one thing that has been annoying me most when patch review gets delayed is that I tend to forget the details after a while. If the reviewer asks me some specific questions during the review, it takes me a while to get back up to speed. It's easier if the review occurred within a week. And there's also the fact that the patch may no longer apply cleanly. I agree with Eli that a one week delay for patch review is good. -- Joel
