You sent in your patch,
0001-Extend-TAP-test-for-pg_replication_slot_advance-to-c_patch.txt to
pgsql-hackers on Nov10, but you did not post it to the next
CommitFest[1].  If this was intentional, then you need to take no
action.  However, if you want your patch to be reviewed as part of the
upcoming CommitFest, then you need to add it yourself before
2021-01-01 AOE[2]. Thanks for your contributions.
