Yup .. it is a sad thing. During my own own multi year attempt I passed all the tests and then waited and waited and waited. Gave up ... requested a new AM The new AM wanted my packages cleaned a little, so I took care of that. Then I waited and waited and waited. Then the AM suddenly soft rejected me for lack of attention. But I was waiting for him! I immediately wrote back and pointed this out but he didn't reply. He is probably too busy. Since a part of my day job requires maintaining 20 private packages for a government contractor one might think I am an ideal candidate, I actually get paid to do packaging. Frankly the whole NM application was a complete waste of time. While I am sure some DDs want new members, the collective doesn't. In contrast, Ubuntu welcomes people with open arms. I would be amazed if most new blood isn't headed there instead. Like you said, it is a sad thing.
