Hi Tomasz,
I'm very please to hear that you are interested in the GSOC project,
see my answers inline.
It's great to see that you know the material pretty well, I'm interested
to hear some more ideas and feedbacks.
I will start a thread soon (Maybe also schedule a call) once getting
more feedbacks from other contributors, so we can brain storm some more
and get practical with it.
If you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to ask me.
thanks,
Maor

Eyal,
I think that he's asking about [1].
As far as I understand, the idea is to automatically get the reviewers names, with
commands like `git blame`, or from gerrit - get previous reviewers to the same
file/module...
Adding Maor, since he might have some additional info.

Adding a plugin to gerrit is an interesting idea although it will
require the administrator to add it in the server, and I want that the
operation will be more available to any submitter in any project.
I think that we can address it in a later phase though.
>> 2. Potential reviewers should agree that they want to review?
no, since gerrit does not question the reviewer if he wants to be added
or not I think we should keep this behaviour as well.
although as I see it, the operation of adding the reviewers, will not be
completely automatic for the submitter, we should let the submitter of
the patch to choose which reviewers he wants to add, very similar to the
screen being used when doing a rebase in git. (see attached file
add_reviewers.png)
>> 3. We can have more than one accepted reviewer?
Yes,
that is correct.
