I'll be honest: the success of the initial release totally blew me away (both in a good way and a bad way). It took me a little over a month to adapt and develop ways to manage all of the threads (prs, community, dev work) without feeling burnt out.

Fortunately I've largely sorted out a workflow that works for my mental health, (i think) works for the community, and still leaves me plenty of time to do dev work. It helps that I can make this my full time job thanks to all of my awesome sponsors.

I am currently the only member of the Bevy organization that can merge prs, but a number of people have stepped up to review prs which helps a lot.

Eventually I do want to grant more people merge rights, but I'm holding off for as long as possible because I think having a single filter that ensures a cohesive vision is valuable.

I'd be happy to hear more about this workflow you've set up for yourself. The more I do development work the more I've come to appreciate having a framework to offload mental overhead onto. I don't think I've found one that quite fits me quite yet, but hopefully soon :fingers_crossed:

I want to second the request to learn more about your workflow. I shepherd OSS projects in addition to dev work, and striking a balance between outreach, admin, and getting things done is always a challenge.
