There is some code which tracks commits and looks for "MFC after:". It 
emails the developer when the time has passed. Nothing else will happen 
in an automated way, no reminder, nothing. Everything else is up to the 
developer.

Regarding how a developer decides when to put a MFC marker or not, is up 
to them.
