Definitely no everyday, there are more patches coming in just after the release, but later it's something like 1-5 patches in month. So it doesn't need much time, but it's always good when it's done by someone else then master maintainer (to setup separate builds etc). Possibly more time is spent on watching the ML, because many people don't read README file and instead of following the proper procedure for backports to relase branches they just say somewhere in ML "BTW: also merge this to dora". You can also have some co-maintainer if you find way to split the work without duplicating it. I'm fine with scheme where maintainer sends me consolidated pull-request and I'll merge it for him to actual branch (so that he doesn't even need R/W to main repo). BTW: If you don't mind, then I'll forward this to oe-devel as well for other possible volunteers.
