Yes. Other people can definitely help me, particular as I gain trust in
their ability to review, accept, and reject patches in a similar way to
what I would have done myself.

I do like that patches are in general sent to the mailing list, and I'd
like that to continue. I use searches based on the list messages to
determine patches that I still need to review, (though, obviously I'm
quite a ways behind in this process).

As people review and accept patches, I'd love to receive mail addressed
specifically to me, (can copy the list as well, of course), with
pointers to git repositories that have "accepted" patches integrated
into them.

That will definitely help me prioritize pulling such patches into the
canonical repository.

-Carl
