Linus and Marcelo now seem well trained to take the patches (although the bogus attribution is a problem). With this surprising success (I thought the damn thing would die after a few days), I will be continuing to provide the service, which only takes me about an hour a week. Usage notes: 1) Please provide one patch per email, even if it means 50 emails. 2) Make sure your diffs are -p1 compliant, ie: +++ linux/drivers/net/foo.c 3) MIME is fine. 4) CC'ing trivial is fine: I usually only forward the patch if a kernel has been released since. 5) I actually read the patches, so don't expect real-time response. FYI, most patches are: (1) janitorial fixes from new people who can't get Linus or linux-kernel to read their patches (aka. Alan Cox Mode), and (2) one-liners from experienced kernel hackers who wouldn't bother retransmitting themselves (aka. Drop Prevention Mode). Thanks! Trivial Patch Monkey. -- Oook ook!
