Again, please realize that some of us get hundreds, if not thousands, of changes a day to review. A normal delay is about 1-2 weeks to get to a review of a change. Ideally it would be faster, but there are only so many hours in a day. To help make this faster, please help out in reviewing other changes submitted by other developers, that will cause your changes to bubble up. thanks, greg k-h
