Yes.

Both.

Yes.

I recognize that Fuel, like devstack, has lots of cross-project 
dependencies. That just makes things harder to handle for Fuel, but it's 
not a reason to have core reviewers not working on code or non-core 
reviewers not doing reviews.

Quite often. I'm personally on IRC participating in design discussions, 
code reviews, and helping people every day. Not troubleshooting 
customers, though...

I think you mean you "burned out" :) But, yes, I hear you. I understand 
the pressure that you are under, and I sympathize with you. I just feel 
that the situation is not an either/or situation, and encouraging some 
folks to only do reviews and not participate in coding/feature 
development is a dangerous thing.
