You sent this on the 26th, two days later on the 28th you're demanding a review and complaining that we've missed this with a top posted quote. Even during a normal working period this would not be a reasnoable demand (a couple of weeks is normally a good *lower* limit, people have vacations and other things to do), and right now we're in the middle of the time of year when people from western societies typically take vacation.
I am really very sorry for this. Actually I am a newbie. I mainly worked during opw-application period and there we used to work with staging directory only. This is my first time, I am working with other parts of kernel. So, I had kind of feeling that I might have done something wrong that's why I am not getting any comments. But I think its my fault. I may need to understand workflow of community properly and I apologizes for that.
Basically you should be allowing something measured in weeks to get a response rather than days unless there's some ultra critical issue - people might be busy, on vacation or whatever. Different parts of the kernel will have different working patterns and rules of thumb but in general be patient, try to leave it for a few weeks before doing anything unless you realise that there's some problem (eg, you forgot to CC someone or you spot a mistake yourself in which case do a new version fixing that mistake). If it's just been a week or two people might just be busy.
