What I do is ping patches that get zero feedback, people sending patches
should do the same.

And when I'm travelling I can't post to the ml, so every month there's a
working week were I can't give feedback and with my goldfish memory I
forget it the week after.

And if you're going to push an 'old' unreviewed patch, it's easy enough
to ack it on the ml and wait a bit to see if someone suddenly spots a
huge bug in the patch.

Koen
