I guess the problem I'm having is that people are using various statuses, 
but there's no clear indication what they mean.  Currently on the 
commitfest we have:

Pending Review
WIP 
Waiting on Response
Proof of Concept

And for the non-committer reviewers, we'll probably need "Ready for 
Committer" as well.  I thing we need to restrict the list of statuses to a 
coherent list, and have definitions for each.
