Please allow a reasonable time for review.  People get busy, go on
holiday, attend conferences and so on so unless there is some reason for
urgency (like critical bug fixes) please allow at least a couple of
weeks for review.  Sending content free pings just adds to the mail
volume (if they are seen at all) and if something has gone wrong you'll
have to resend the patches anyway.

Please include human readable descriptions of things like commits and
issues being discussed in e-mail in your mails, this makes them much
easier for humans to read especially when they have no internet access.
I do frequently catch up on my mail on flights or while otherwise
travelling so this is even more pressing for me than just being about
making things a bit easier to read.
