There are a number of subsystem maintainers, but most stuff
does go through Junio, yes.

Docmentation/SubmittingPatches

Rejections get emailed to the author, and generally also to the list.

Acceptance needs to be watched for by the author by fetching Junio's
nightly updates, and seeing if your patch made it into next, or into
pu, or not at all.

If it isn't there after a couple of days and if you have also not
received a rejection notice indicating why it was not applied,
it probably got dropped.  A polite reminder would then be OK.
