I'm not happy with two weeks because I myself didn't finish a review
in two weeks several times.

If my proposal, for immediate (i.e. less than a week) reaction that
acknowledges the RFA and states the ETA, is okay with you, would you
mind to extend the timeout? Chris said he likes this idea.

Or, alternatively, we could have a very short timeout, like your
``couple of days'', not for the review itself, but for the initial
reaction of the maintainer; the time frame for the review could then
be negotiated between the contributor, the RM, and the rest of the
maintainers.

If we cannot find any compromise along the above-mentioned guidelines,
I will reluctantly agree to the 2-week timeout.
