Life changes, I used to run a script daily that made sure all easyHack had code pointers (among a 
couple of other checks).

We used to demand a code pointer for it to be an esayHack. Sometimes people submitted an easyHack 
without a code pointer (like the cases here), they would be put on a hold queue, until a core 
developer could add a code pointer.

Seems Development Mentoring have changed since my days.
