This may be true for repositories where you are the owner, but have you ever 
thought about the fact that you do not get this emails for the rest of GNUstep? 
I have now added myself as a watcher to the  four main GNUstep modules.

And I found a query for the PR filter to show all the relevant requests at once:

"is:open is:pr archived:false user:gnustep“

There where actually quite a few there. I was able to merge most of them but 
want to apologise to everyone for taking so long to do so. We never intended to 
use GitHub for change requests or issue tracking. Now they are happening there 
and we need to adjust to this.
