If you are interested in being a reviewer, please keep the following in mind

- proposals from multiple cities will be directed towards the review volunteers for review
- the week before the meetup is usually when the city teams share the proposals
- there are usually 4-8 proposals that need to be reviewed
- two or more cities might host meetups on the same weekend so it is possible that \> 10 proposals need to be reviewed within a few days
- subjective review comments are preferred over a simple accept/reject
- overall, expect to spend ~ 5-10 hours a month
- overall, there could be 5-10 reviewers but usually, 3-4 are needed to review proposals for one meetup
