As you can see, it took me a while to reply to even this simple message,
and I apologize for that.

It takes a lot of time to review “difficult” patches like this one.  A
patch tracker would help, but not with the review work itself.

It saddens me to see you leave.  I realize that the slowness and
tediousness of our process is at fault, and that we are losing valuable
contributions in an area that really needs them.

I think that more and more people are getting a handle on more parts of
the code, and that is what will help the project scale better.

I hope we can keep in touch and work together again when you deem
appropriate.

Thank you for your contributions,
Ludo’.
