If the first couple of reviews highlight some show stopping problem which forces the author either to retract his review request or accede to significant re-design - the review resources have also been wasted.
I thought this was the point of having to find a review manager and organize a review. There is always a risk that the library fails to pass the review. Otherwise, why have one?
Of course, but why pass up the opportunity to get some advance feedback?
Is there a reasonable assurance that he'll get it, or is it just adding latency to the process? Of the twenty-two libraries listed, there are a whopping three reviews, two of which are a review of your own library, and one of those is by you where you recommend that we don't accept it into Boost. Not exactly good odds... The incubator is an experiment. It may succeed, or it may fail. If someone wishes to tie their review to it, that's fine. If they don't wish to, that is fine too. We know that you want the incubator to succeed, but it is unfair to expect anyone to hold up a review of their library because of it. -- Nevin ":-)" Liber mailto:nevin@eviloverlord.com (847) 691-1404
