So I saw the patch twice in email , but neither time did I get the feeling that I should apply it. The first time Eric responded to it, so the maintainer clearly knew about it and was reacting to it, so I ignored it. The second time Eric resent it as email to various people and lists, and I didn't react to it because I expected that was again just for discussion. So I'm not blaming you as much as Eric. If a maintainer expects me to pick it up from the email (rather than his usual git pulls), I want that maintainer to *say* so. Because otherwise, as mentioned, I expect it to come through the maintainer tree as usual.
