I was asked to handle the GNOME mega-updates because so much of GNOME
was released in a semi-random way with packages getting left behind.
I'm sorry if I had not consulted everyone before I started, but the
kind of maintainer who is too busy to build packages is also the kind
of person who's too busy to send me an email to opt-in. So far only
two maintainers have asked to be opted out of the new system and i
guess a few dozen people have thanked me for automating an otherwise
boring and repetitive task.

Yup, done.

For the record, I think you've completely over-reacted. One polite
email would have made you look much more helpful and professional than
*4* angry emails.
