I mostly do the same with networking, and I'm the maintainer there
too. :-)

And regardless of my workload, all reasonable patches and bug fixes
submitted for IDE flowed freely during this time, or were given
a review NACK.

I depend upon subsystem contributors to fix the bugs, that's how this
works. I merely mediate, review patches, apply patches, and chip in
with some work of my own from time to time as the situation and my
workload dictate.

Nobody is forcing you to fix bugs or work on anything, you can freely
ignore every IDE related email. Create a filter for it if you like.
