I think there may be several patches on there that have been superseded or otherwise made obsolete. This makes choosing what to review harder. My guess is that it is very much easier for the author to know this than for David (B). Hence I would like to suggest that authors say when their patches should be removed from the queue. I have several patches in this category (in each case I just list the first patch of the series) id:"1328375350-10352-2-git-send-email-markwalters1009@gmail.com" (superseded) id:"1328388317-20161-2-git-send-email-markwalters1009@gmail.com" (Dmitry suggested a better solution) id:"1329296619-7463-2-git-send-email-markwalters1009@gmail.com" (a later version has been pushed) id:"1329900529-16295-1-git-send-email-markwalters1009@gmail.com" (various problems so should be removed; perhaps marked wip) id:"1330539189-16593-2-git-send-email-markwalters1009@gmail.com" (as much as is relevant has been pushed: it's the revert exclude for 0.12 series) Best wishes Mark
