Multiple review requests without sponsor

[Brandon Thomas]

Can I make multiple review requests while I'm waiting for a sponsor?
And I should add the FE_NEEDSPONSOR block onto the new one as well,
right?

Yes, you should. It actually helps, because
a) you show that you are a capable packager,
b) it's easier for potential sponsors to find a package they want
   to review.

Yes. You might want to set 'See also' to the other bugs, so it's
easy
to move between them.

I agree with this, but I would also mention that you shouldn't submit
lots and lots of packages. People who have done that in the past have
often made common mistakes in all of them (since they hadn't gone
through a review before) and then gotten discouraged they had to clean
up all of them or resubmit. 

So yes, a few is great, but don't go overboard. ;)
