Helping with the backlog

[David Anderson]

Hi,

Apologies if this is the wrong place for this, but it seemed to be the best I could find.

I'd like to help with the review backlog. IIUC, the best way to do that is for me to look through the backlog and do the "grunt work" of evaluation - DNS record checks, ownership checks, submission intent vs. guidelines, formatting issues in the PR, flagging any relevant policy discussions that apply (e.g. collecting data for the RBL checking proposal in https://github.com/publicsuffix/list/issues/1699), and offer a non-authoritative opinion on mergeability based on that.

First of all, is that correct? The last thing I want is to create extra load on maintainers by triggering spam notifications on PRs.

If this is helpful in general, would anyone be willing to do a "meta-review" of my reviews so far? Basically, should I keep submitting reviews in this vein, and should I adjust how I review things? Ones I've done so far:

 - https://github.com/publicsuffix/list/pull/1548#pullrequestreview-1610404723

 - https://github.com/publicsuffix/list/pull/1553#issuecomment-1706140901

 - https://github.com/publicsuffix/list/pull/1539#issuecomment-1706012769

I'm holding off on sending more for now out of a concern that I'm being spammy, but give the word and I'm happy to keep going, or adjust how I do things.

Cheers, and thanks for keeping the lights on and fires lit all these years.
