I checked my mail and the only thing I can find in reply to those
patches is a note from you saying you added them to your queue.

...but you're not the submaintainer here so I don't think this applies.

The point about the kernel practice as I understood it was that
the kernel folks treat acked-by at about the same level of review as
"looks ok to me" (ie, very little), not that there's some obligation to
treat any informal 'looks ok' note as an acked-by. I'm in full agreement
with Anthony that if you want a tag to appear you should send it
properly.
