Llvm is having an anonymous maintainer survey

Andrew Pinski proposes that GCC could adopt an anonymous maintainer survey, drawing inspiration from a similar initiative being considered by LLVM. The LLVM survey is partly a response to an overwhelming volume of patches. Pinski believes such a survey could be beneficial for GCC as well, potentially helping to gauge maintainer workload and satisfaction.
