I agree, and.. I've wondered about that requirement. Is it really needed?
If an established Boost developer has a good amount of professional
experience they are likely to be able to tackle most programming domains at
the level needed for managing a review. Should we reconsider that
requirement? For example I would consider myself to know enough to manage
the Bloom review. But...
And, as always, time is limited, too.

Yes, that aspect also gets in the way of me volunteering to manage or
review anything.
