We have the QA system that does test builds, but each patch also needs to be evaluated and checked.

To encourage new reviewers to step forward, and to have some fun we're going to run on-line patch review sessions. These will be informal, probably chaotic - but fun - with the aim that we learn as a group how to review packages. > > Each session will be hour 1:30 and they are rotating through the week, so there should be plenty of opportunities to come along. We're using the Guix London's Meet-up and the sessions run on Jitsi. Will the Jitsi link be shared somewhere (here, irc, ...) for those of us who are not able to sign up on the page? I am getting this error: > Your IP address has been flagged as a source of spam and is blocked from > Meetup.
