Yes, thanks. If you look at the history of the patch I linked in the original email, you'll find that Kuiying merged the change approximately 4.5 hours after I sent the notice.

Maintainers are expected to find time to provide feedback on patches inside one month of them being pushed to Gerrit. Upon complaint, missing this deadline forms one count of unresponsiveness. If a subproject's maintainers receive three notices of unresponsiveness within a 12 month period then the Technical Oversight Forum will seek to introduce new maintainers to the subproject.
