We just had a thread about "Where do I send stuff" on another
list. My suggestion based on that conversation is that if you have code,
send a mention of it to -Current, perhaps with the patch(es) if it/they
are small. In that message you should mention that there are more fixes
available in your PR, and mention the number. If you don't get any action
there, try -hackers.
There are people interested in fixing these problems (and people
like me interested in having them fixed) but they don't all hang out in
-stable, and PR dealing with is a hit and miss proposition sometimes for
non-urgent items.
HTH,
Doug
