As a rule of thumb it's ok, but it should not be mandatory. I think the
FESCo members are already having a lot of work to do and I'm not sure if
everybody has enough spare time for reviews.

But perhaps we should think about making your proposal mandatory for
sponsors and - more important - for people who want to become a sponsor.

This is taken into account in (secret) discussions about sponsors. Maybe
not enough, but as far as I can tell most sponsors have a good record of
reviews. There are certainly exception, but considering that the 3 who
do many reviews are sponsors, the balance for sponsors is very
positive... But it has to be that way, because it is easier to submit
packages than to do review (in my opinion) so experienced people should
have a positive balance if things are to work smoothly.

I think this is an excellent idea.
