And possibly a high ratio of bad responses : good responses. I'm not
really familiar these days with the type of stories they post but a "LDP
in need of volunteers" story doesn't sound very slashdot to me.
If people do want to help me find technical reviewers that would be
excellent. I think you should feel free to post wherever EXCEPT that you
should be careful that your mail/notice is not seen as spam. Better to
err on the side of caution than to blanket mail every potential reviewer
under the sun. Try to get a feel for the guidelines of anywhere you
post. Perhaps follow David's suggestion and post to local LUGs.
