Yes, picking up old patches from patchwork and reviewing them is very 
helpful.  (So is fixing up issues from review if the review was a while 
back and the original submitter seems to have lost interest but the change 
still seems to make sense.)

We have several large backlogs, including: patches needing review; 
patchwork cleanup to make it easier to find patches needing review; bug 
reports in Bugzilla needing fixing (or shepherding patches through review 
if a patch was attached and nothing more happened, etc., or obtaining 
consensus on whether a proposed new feature is desirable) (I expect a 
large proportion of the 827 open bugs would not be hard to resolve).
