First, please note that thanks to tireless Chris work about QA, testing
is not hard! Currently, it is poorly documented. For instance, you can
test using:
guix time-machine \
--url=https://git.guix-patches.cbaines.net/git/guix-patches \
--branch=issue-123456 --disable-authentication \
-- build <foo>
As discussed in the thread,

indeed, the pluming details could be hidden under a new Guix subcommand
or via a new Mumi subcommand.
Any help is welcome. :-)
Second, the bottleneck about reviewing and merging is not about how
difficult or easy it is, instead it is because that’s a boring task that
barely fixes the immediate annoyances. Somehow, the root of the issue
is the feeling of “being accountable”. Since the motivation is not
fungible, there is not easy and straightforward solution. From my point
of view, what is behind Teams is one direction for trying to improve the
bottleneck about reviewing.
Cheers,
simon
