This is an excellent set of guidelines. The only drawback I see here is that the current VCS situation makes doing the review more tedious than it should be, especially for non-committers. Or maybe the Hg mirrors are truly up-to-date and working? Last I looked, they were lagging or unavailable.

If you only a review a patch (rather than say maintain and evolve it), there's no point in using hg rather than SVN. However, the mirrors are most of the time alive and up-to-date (sync period is around 5 minutes): http://code.python.org/hg

(perhaps you're thinking about http://hg.python.org/, which is an experimental conversion of the SVN repo, not really meant for daily use)

Antoine.
