Fantastic! Did you send us an email as well? It's generally unlikely we'll see the application if you didn't (although I'll look now).

That feels like a broken process. How will you mitigate that?

It's by design, as a test that the maintainers have read the instructions and told us a bit about themselves and what they like, as well as just getting to know them. It generally works well, I think, except in this specific case where the meeting was done out-of-band.
