For example, changes to R packages and emacs seem to be reviewed quickly. However, recently, patches for updating more general application packages (octave, for example) seem to be reviewed and processed very slowly. As a GNU/Linux distribution the update speed of applications impact the perception of the community on a distribution, and thus it is beneficial if packages update can be processed quickly to keep Guix "up to date" so to speak. Hope Guix maintainers can give some thought to this and let more volunteers participate in package review process to allow package updates more quickly. As packages are usually at the end of the dependency chain (they depend on other libraries or components more than the other way around) updating packages shall take less review effort.
