Here are a few links to pull requests on dlang.org that seem to need love from the maintainers. No updates from upstream for: 3 months: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/pull/311 4 months: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/pull/304 4 months: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/pull/292 4 months: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/pull/267 I've created and led several successful open source projects and I've contributed to many more. The rule of thumb I've observed is that "a few days" of response latency is fine, ~5 days is plenty and anything more than a week is too long and sends the wrong signal. I can't say I've always observed this rule of thumb myself (sometimes I forget or slip up), but it's a bar I try to meet. I appreciate your agreement that the community can and must do better.
