Thanks. This sort of information -- explaining the aim of the series
and explaining what will be done later -- is appreciated by reviewers.

There are a few additional pieces of information you can include in
the cover letter to make life even simpler for reviewers:

* provide a link to the previous version of the series

* explain what differs in this version as compared with the previous version

* include a range-diff showing the actual changes between this version
and the previous version (see `git format-patch --range-diff=`

There are many good examples on the mailing which illustrate the above
points; here is one such instance:
