I also would find it nice if that was the case.

If I remember correctly, you mentioned quite a couple of times that you
expect, particularly oldtimers on this list, to be mindful when
contributing patch series, and to delay patches that would interfere with
other patch series that are already in flight.

I saw with sorrow that this rule was ignored a couple of times recently,
even with new contributors, and I sincerely hope that we can unignore that
rule again.

Thank you. I have to admit that it was quite frustrating to see so many
obstacles being put in my way, only to end up at pretty much the same
place as I had been over a month ago. So it is extra gratifying to hear
that you move forward with the Scalar patch series. I truly believe that
our users will be better off for it.

Thanks,
Dscho
