It's a team effort, but the processing of pull requests has been a definite 
bottleneck. I'd say that for Phobos, 90+% of the time it's either you or me 
who merges them, so if either of us is slow about it and/or another Phobos dev 
is needed to review a particular request, then pull requests tend to languish. 
It's even worse for druntime, since a lot of the time, Sean needs to get 
involved (particularly since some of us feel a bit unqualified reviewing and 
merging some of the critical stuff in druntime), and he seems to be very, very 
busy (though with Martin Nowak recently added as a committer for druntime, the 
situation may improve). So, the fact that you took the time to review and 
merge so many pull requests had a big impact.
