Does the rant make you feel better?  :-)

With a more general view of nova review performance, our averages are
very good right now and are meeting our goals for review turnaround times:

http://russellbryant.net/openstack-stats/nova-openreviews.html

--> Total Open Reviews: 230
--> Waiting on Submitter: 105
--> Waiting on Reviewer: 125

--> Stats since the latest revision:
----> Average wait time: 3 days, 12 hours, 14 minutes
----> Median wait time: 1 days, 12 hours, 31 minutes
----> Number waiting more than 7 days: 19

--> Stats since the last revision without -1 or -2 (ignoring jenkins):
----> Average wait time: 5 days, 10 hours, 57 minutes
----> Median wait time: 2 days, 13 hours, 27 minutes

Also note that there are no hyper-v patches that are in the top 5 of any
of the lists of patches waiting the longest.  So, you are certainly not
being singled out here.

Please understand that I only want to help here.  Perhaps a good way for
you to get more review attention is get more karma in the dev community
by helping review other patches.  It looks like you don't really review
anything outside of your own stuff, or patches that touch hyper-v.  In
the absence of significant interest in hyper-v from others, the only way
to get more attention is by increasing your karma.
