Dan,

Various people pointed out that you need to use the proper subject in
the patches.
You clearly knew that rule and yet you ignored it,
and worse still you keep coming up with these excuses.
Don't be surprised that people who are supposed to review your patches
will take a long time to reply or "forget" about them as you "forget"
about patch submission rules.
