Thanks David.

This is interestingly non-standard and not something new contributors 
will understand.

If we want to encourage contributors (and we do), we want patches, 
including those sent in naive ways, to always get the red carpet, with 
the minimum of delays and gotchas. So ideally, eg:

- patches appear on the list asap without needing moderation (cf 
yesterday's thread)

- patches send by darcs send, or directly to the list, and discussion of 
same, are always seen by patch approvers (you)

As a step in this direction, maybe it would be possible to have your 
gmail rules pass through any list message containing a patch ?

Then the situation we need to communicate to contributors is: "droundy 
approves patches. He reads patches and patch discussion but not other 
list traffic." which is a bit simpler.
