That sounds like a good move! It really is all about who sends these patches, and what their stance is toward creating patches. And furthermore, that's not even a change in policy! Because traditionally, that's how people started anyway: with small patches and patience. It's only with AI that they've been able to skip that step, to everyone's detriment. There are some patchsets in my inbox that I instinctively just skipped, because they were huge new patchsets from new AIs (not people, really), only to watch in dismay as they burned up other people's time in review attempts. thanks, -- John Hubbard
