Sounds good.

I'm not clear about the difference between the unapplied patches list
and the hold list. What is the significance of the two lists?

There's a number of patches submitted to pgsql-patches that don't show
up on either list. I haven't made a list of these, but they include
major patches such as Grouped Item indexes and a number of others. Many
of those are clearly marked as ready to apply/review/reject.

Can I request that those be reviewed first? The unapplied patches list
looks long and many things on it aren't even patches, AFAICS -
presumably TODO items-in-waiting?

Some minor points:

[PATCHES] Incrementally Updated Backup, Simon Riggs
has already been applied to 8.2

[PATCHES] WAL logging freezing, Heikki Linnakangas
has already been agreed/applied to 8.2
