Ability to sort based on ownership about reviewboard-userscripts HOT 1 CLOSED

I hear ya! Review overload sucks. It's something that Dev Efficiency and the Software Discipline have been and are still addressing, especially in drivers.

Note however: If you are added to a review as an owner, alternate, or reviewer -- in other words, you're listed in an niconfig file -- your approval is required 100% of the time. Alternatively, you may be removed/declined from the review by another owner/alternate/review (but not the code author). Alternatively, a tech lead can "vouch" for the changes and bypass the owner review process (a process that is currently specific to AzDO). Either way, your approval or removal is required for the review to complete and for the code to go in. It is further expected that you reply within 24 business hours (with at least a comment of any sort). All DevCentral Git repos have tooling to remind reviewers to do their reviews if over a day has passed.

For more info on this policy, see this doc.

I also understand that this policy hasn't been communicated equally among teams onboarding to niconfig. I know @zhindes will have more on this topic very soon, including curating the various docs we have on this topic. Here's some preliminary comms on this topic.

Because your review is required, sorting the dashboard based on your specific role (owner/alt/reviewer) is not necessary, because all reviews have the same requirement to complete. Furthermore, all reviews -- regardless of whether you're listed in an niconfig file for the review -- have the 24 business hour expectation for first response.

If you'd like to chat more about the policy, let's sync up on Teams. Afterward, if you believe you still want this feature, let's reopen the issue, easy :)
