I've been a bit overloaded past few days, so didn't get around to looking
at any of your patches yet, but just a quick suggestion on process: Please
don't resend complicated patches this quickly. It takes various reviewers
a while to grasp the latest updates and complications, often they first
need to find a bit of time to really think things through. So if you
resend multiple times per day it gets overwhelming and confusing for
reviewers. E.g. on your work here I think about 4 different people
comment, but all in different threads, so harder to get towards some
consensus.

Your enthusiasm and drive is great here, but please keep in mind that the
people reviewing your patches do this more or less in their spare time
(Sean&me blocked some time for outreachy, but can't go through it all
every day).

I think Sean volunteered to take a detailed look at your series, pls ping
him on irc to coordinate patch reworks (if that's still needed).

Thanks, Daniel
