[Sugar-devel] Bug tracking Vs Patch review

To me it makes a whole lot of difference. Doing reviews in Trac takes
me more than twice the time compared to doing reviews on the mailing
list, both as a contributor and as a reviewer. Some other people have
expressed it's similar for them. So far nobody has claimed it's the
other way round for them.

And yes, there are quite a few other things we need to discuss and
fix. But the review process taking a lot of time on both sides is
a) one of the things we need to fix
b) affecting the other things (time I spend on the complicated
   review process is time I can't spend on other things) and
c) easy enough to fix, so a good starting point.
