First off, don't say anything. Almost all maintainers are very
responsive. If you don't hear back after a while, a repost is
acceptable, and usually expected. If you still don't hear back, oh
well...
But for you to try to impose your project deadlines on community members
is not a very nice thing to do. Odds are, none of them really care
about your deadlines, as they have their own, differing schedules, and
priorities :)
Hope this helps,
