OK, so how it works is firstly you have to tell me it's for rc fixes ... I can sometimes get this from the subject (if it contains words like bug fix). Secondly, I need enhancements and fixes separated so they can be separately applied to the different trees (if you have an entanglement, I can rebase the misc tree to pick up the needed rc-fixes dependencies). So if you separate the patches (or just tell me what's a bug fix ... and they apply individually) I can put them in the rc-fixes tree.
