Thank you so much for helping the PR this time.

Here is what I thought:
>From next development window, 

If we see a heavy development window, IOW, the patches size is big, I
will take the job of picking up patches and sending out PRs.

Once the development calms down, the patches size is trivial, I will
explictly send request to you by repling the patches to ask your help
to directly take the patches and send PRs.

Any comments are appreciated.

Thanks

The handbook is a wonderful document, thank you!
