The challenge is that bug-fixing and patch review isn't really where the maintainers' effort is right now. Guix and Guile 3 are the major efforts. We don't need to make it easier to submit patches. We need to make it easier to incorporate patches. Some projects (like Pixman) have a rule that if a patch receives no opposition after a few weeks and a couple of pings, you are free to push it. I wonder if that would work here? Or would it be too chaotic? My two cents, Mike Gran
