I think that we should perform review according to some guidelines (to be 
defined), and that there should be a defined limit. However two weeks is much 
too short. The timeframe should be a substantial fraction of a release cycle 
- perhaps 3 months.  So authors  move their code into kdereview, and request 
inclusion into the 3.5 release. Unless some objection is raised, then it goes 
in.

During that cycle, really aggressive distros should include it as an 
experimental release package.
