Either of those would be fine (out of those options, I'd prefer
/reviews/ as it better encapsulates what the app is about -
reviews+moderation - even if it means urls like /reviews/reviews/2/,
/reviews/moderations/3/ etc.).

Going slightly off-topic (perhaps something for the Monday call), but
why do we want reviews+moderations to be at developer.ubuntu.com at
all? Wouldn't software-center.ubuntu.com be a better long-term
location (especially if the web app eventually exposes reviews via the
UI - for whom the target audience would not be developers, but even
just for the moderation functionality, which is not developer specific
like the other resources you've listed below.

Yep, I'm adding a branch that makes that transition now.
