When I worked at a startup I handed off all of my main kernel maintainer duties to other people because I knew I couldn't be responsive enough upstream. I do the same when I'm going to be away on a real vacation. You could elect to do so too. I also do handle bugzilla bugs and do real engineering for the company I work for, and if you're suggesting otherwise that's a pretty serious insult to me Stephen.
