You raise a good point regarding "more reviewers mean[ing] more packages
reviewed and hopefully uploaded", but as you yourself alluded to in a
previous email[0], there are a lot of points to review closely,
particularly in large source packages. Furthermore, I caution you to be
wary of the misconception that putting more people, even well qualified
ones, on a team will result in linear resolution. While your recent
efforts in Ubuntu universe are duly noted and much appreciated, I hope
to see your continued efforts in universe, particularly to the points
you've raised.

ubuntu-dev Launchpad team membership carries an implicit leadership
awareness and duty, even. In what areas, and possibly in what direction,
will you lead Ubuntu universe [aside from the ones you've noted above]?

Thanks,
Daniel Chen
