It's the busiest developers who would be interested in receiving PRs. If they go unanswered for six months, it is a clear signal that there is something stopping else them from action.

Do you think busy devs who also run open source projects tend to have plenty of time to set a high priority on FOSS?

Is Dark Table just a side-project from one busy developer?

Depends on the PR. Bugfixes sure, but new features mean more work for the maintianer in the future.

It is also an opportunity for someone to feel involved and eventually join the group, perhaps even become a maintainer.

Speaking as a project maintainer that is starting to see some traction: I'd love to see people coming with PRs for features. It would mean a big amount of validation.
