>> This is how we suck you in... ;)

I see :-). Funny I didn't see this procedure mentioned in the patch
submission guidelines ;-)
You don't have to be an expert to review patches. The following
> procedure would qualify you:
>> 1. Find a patch that it appears no one has ever touched (0 comments,
> assigned to nobody, etc.)
>> 2. Pretty much every patch should include a unit test and
> documentation. If something is missing from the patch you're looking
> at, post a comment that says "Incomplete, no docs/tests".

My own patch does not include documentation. I assume documentation would
only be needed for patches that add new functionality (as opposed to fixing
problems)?
3. Repeat until you've commented on five patches.
>> If you find such clerical work beneath you, you can go further--build
> Python from source, apply patches, and verify that they work. It's
> not hard (google "python developer faq"). But it's not required.

I might try to do this, as time permits.
