Note that at no point in the post whatsoever were any contributions to these specific issues from outside the core maintainers thanked or even acknowledged.
I couldn't fit any kinds of thank yous into the talk, except for the credit to the overall community in the first few minutes, because I had a lot to say and only 25 minutes. It's possible I should have written an extended blog post that was more than just the talk, but I didn't - the blog post is just the talk, as it says.
