Ok, giving the general public an update about Reviews: it was decided to create a new extension for reviews that stays apart from the old one. The distance from what's todays best practice was to far given that many elements of the code are over 10 years old and also relied in many aspects on jquery which the starter_frontend aimed to remove. https://github.com/solidusio-contrib/solidus_reviews/issues/124 The current targeted feature set can be envisioned here: If anybody wants to provide personal opinions about the scope of the new gem they are invited to do so.
