Thank you for your well thought-out message. There are some good points there. I do wish that there was more documentation and wisdom collated from mailing lists posts regarding the review process. You brought up a lot of informal guide rails, why aren't we committing this to an asciidoc document on the website?
As with everything Boost, I would guess nobody has to date sat down and written out the documentation? I think I was the last person to substantially refactor the documentation page on the review process? The one before I did that had been there for years, didn't actually match the review process, and everybody here agreed it needed fixing but nobody had stepped up to do it. I did at the time, after a few people here checked my new text now matched reality (at that time) it was merged and to my best knowledge, nobody has substantially improved upon those docs since then. And that was many years ago now. Documentation can always be improved of course, but getting the right people to do it is always the hard part. Niall
