This method of review is really sub-optiomal.

Who checked all those marks? There's no way to know.

Was it someone expert in the area? 

Was it someone that knows has no idea what the checks mean?

Or was it the submitter of review? If it's the submitter for review it's 
worthless (nothing against Carl, you're great) but one doesn't review their 
own MRs, so one shouldn't probably review this kind of checks either.

I'm abstaining from this review and any coming reviews due to the medium being 
worse that the old "Have an email thread on k-c-d".

Cheers,
  Albert
