You know the situation the best as the author, you should make a clear call on the nature of the posting. It's either RFC/RFT or a ready-to-go-in posting. Maybe in smaller subsystems you can post an RFC/RTF and then it gets applied after some time without a repost but we don't do that. The normal processing time for a patch is 1-3 days while we like to give people a week to test. So the patches would have to rot in the review queue for extra half a week. At our patch rate this is unsustainable.
