do you know enough about what (other) Bazaar developers are doing?

It is, and it isn't. I can spend hours rehashing old discussions for
people new to the project.

I can spend a long time just trying to give quick feedback in all
threads that haven't had any. (If you look at the logs, I think you'll
find the number of messages that have 0 replies is quite low. There are
a couple, but not many.)

I agree that it is work, I agree that it has some importance. I don't
really think that spending 100% of my time carefully crafting emails is
the best use of my time.
