Hi Guix, I have seen different opinions [1][2] regarding sending pings to patches that aren't getting reviewed or are otherwise lacking attention.
To get a better idea of peoples' opinions, I've created a survey. Please do take it, it's only two questions long. https://sneakmonkey.limesurvey.net/286966?lang=en I think it would be good for Guix to have stated guidelines on this subject, so that everybody knows in advance what is considered acceptable and what isn't. Right now it is difficult for a new contributor to judge whether sending a ping will help or not. Hopefully the survey is a step in the right direction. Thanks, 45mg P.S. Regarding the option 'To a dedicated thread or list meant for pings (hypothetical)': I was thinking along the lines of NixOS's monthly 'PRs ready for review' threads [3].
