I would definitely welcome a "private" space to connect with other actual maintainers without having to here "I requested this feature 2 weeks ago, where is it?

  That private space exists. It is emails.

    Awesome, do you have a list of the few thousand maintainers that might be relevant and actually maybe just the ones that similar to the repos I maintain? Also just the ones that are interested in connecting? Also when someone new comes in, should I forward all the previous emails? That way it's not even more closed than a random company community?

Which one should your message be: A) to "a few thousand" maintainers B) private Sorry, but I don't believe a project that size doesn't already have private channels in which they communicate with each other. And when you are on the outside of these channels, writing a mail to the person that it might concern the most is absolutely a thing you can do, so they can privately communicate it to the relevant people. This is also a feature because it keeps their internal discussion boards free from a ton of requests.

  Some programmers make no better requests, and whiny people also happen to be vocal.

  Where would you draw the line for people to be an actual maintainer? Stars on Github for your project? A committee? Does it work if I have 2 users?
