REVU Days
What is REVU?
REVU is a website where contributors can upload new packages they’ve created for Ubuntu Developers to review and comment on them. If two Ubuntu Developers are happy with a package, it enters repositories of the current Ubuntu development version.
What are REVU Days?
REVU Days are weekly events which span over an entire day, during which Ubuntu Developers are likely to give special importance to reviewing packages from REVU. Contributors who want to get their stuff reviewed are highly encouraged to be available -and ask for reviews- on #ubuntu-motu (at irc.freenode.net) so that reviewers can easily contact them about any problems.
There haven’t been many REVU Days those last months, but they will start to happen again periodically once the development cycle for Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) starts. This brings us to the following question:
What weekday will they be?

Finally! A lot of packages have been on revu for many months without any comments, this is not only a missed chance for getting new things into Ubuntu, but also disappoints and scares away the packagers. I hope you will get this running!
