I've noticed a lot of reviews that are old commonly have broken links to 
spec files. I've never understood why the process does not describe to 
attach the spec file directly to bugzilla, though the SRPM probably 
should remain elsewhere simply due to size:

I initially thought I would suggest setting up a gerrit instance, but 
found this ticket explaining the difficulty in doing that:
https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/2924

And then I found that we already have a reviewboard instance set up at:
http://fedorahosted.org/reviewboard

Would it be crazy to suggest leveraging that for package reviews? I 
think it would increase the visibility of pending reviews and allow 
reviews to be less cumbersome. (I am aware of the reviews listed on
http://fedoraproject.org/PackageReviewStatus/)
