Sounds good to me. I'd suggest we'd need some kind of table where people
have a name, a list of topics they're interested to review, and a list of
topics they know they can't/won't review. Ideally, Gerrit would present a
link to that page so that people can browse it when they have added a new
patch. Not sure how feasible that is. Wanting anybody to be able to edit
their own information makes it feel more like wiki content than Redmine
content to me, so I'd suggest a new subsection of
http://www.gromacs.org/Developer_Zone/Git/Gerrit. Any further thoughts?
