While trying to get reviews, I posted on a forum a few times (I think it was this one). Got a little traction, got great advice and updated the patches. Sadly I hit the forum’s new user posting limits and was unable to get the reviews to give the final approval. So I’ve had some patches accepted and others that have been sitting there for months/years.

It has meant that after a burst of packaging, I’ve stopped submitting. I’d love to be able to get reviews even if it takes months. Any suggestions are welcome.

Try to come on Matrix; you'll be able to get much better traction there.

Some community members are also working on a merge-bot[1] with the goal of allowing package maintainers to self-service their PRs. This will allow nixpkgs to scale much better. For now, it's limited to package upgrades submitted by the ryantm-updater bot.

Thanks! I’ll give Matrix a go. It is fun packaging software up and getting it out there.
