Does this mean that you are volunteering to handle the 5 to 10 bug reports that are coming in daily, as well as all the "stupid" questions on gimp-user and gimp-developer? If each of them takes you ten minutes to deal with, you aren't going to have time for anything else in your life. It is IMO very important that each bug report is handled quickly and that all questions are answered. I can spend about half an hour per day on this. That is not an excuse for being rude, I am only pointing out that you are asking for too much. We should definitely improve our tone and it will probably help to spend a few extra seconds per request. But if ten minutes is the required amount of time that needs to be spent on a bug report or for answering an email, then I am out. Even reading your mails takes way too much of my time. I definitely prefer a short text that comes to the point quickly. And you should reconsider your use of footnotes in emails. No, it doesn't improve the reading experience as it forces me to scroll up and down.
