No top-posting in fedora-devel :)

Besides that, I can just agree with Tim. The oldest package was reviewed 
less than a year ago, the two others last summer. Requiring a new review 
is, well, somewhat formal.

That said, it should be easy to review these to resolve this issue. If 
you just make some new review requests, linking to the previous review 
I'll guess this could be handled without to much problems.
