In the interest of working towards better review throughput in the
mailnews & Thunderbird areas, I've put together a couple of draft pages
of review guidelines, based on the ones currently in use for Firefox and
Toolkit:

<http://www.mozilla.org/mailnews/review.html>
<http://www.mozilla.org/mailnews/review-mail.html>

These have not yet substantively changed the reviewers and modules much.
What they do do is provide policy guidelines and a jumping-off point
for splitting out more sub-modules as well as other cleanup.

I started with copies of the Firefox and Toolkit pages, modified for
policy differences, merged in the information from owners.html, and
split off a few new modules that effectively describe the way things are
already working today (Addressbook, IMAP, Message Database).

Feedback appreciated.

Next steps (to follow soon): splitting off more sub-modules, finding
peers for existing sub-modules, and pinging folks who haven't been
active for a while to sort out their ongoing roles.
