Please keep in mind that new contributors have an additional
bureaucratic overhead, the sponsor procedure, which complicates
matters well beyond the issue of the review backlog.  I have simply
given up sponsoring anyone until the maintainer containment stuff is
in place because its simply more expedient for me to spend my
unfortunately limited time on non-needsponsor reviews.
