It's incredibly unreasonable to expect immediate responses from a
group of volunteers.

Personally, it takes me over 2 hours just to make a first pass over
the day's emails in the morning.  This means not even replying to
anything or reading any content seriously.  That's just deleting the
excess postings I have no direct interest in.

Then I go over patches, that can take 3 hours or more.

And then, and only then, can I look at bug reports and other things
which are not new patches.  And your mail falls into that category
because you didn't post a proper patch, and if you did you'd need
to properly signoff on the patch and provide a properly formed
commit message.

You just need to be patient.
