Aloha Jambunathan K.,
Please, don't leave the table to Carsten!
The Org-mode community is full of exceptionally talented people, like
Carsten, who choose to spend some of their time developing Org-mode
because it is interesting, fun and wickedly useful.
If your patch didn't generate the interest you think it might deserve,
then please have some more fun developing it to the point that the
rest of us can have fun with it, too.
All the best,
Tom

I had proposed a patch to org-capture in this thread.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2010-08/
msg01152.html
The patch has neither been rejected nor accepted. I am a bit
concerned
that it might have been lost.
It's currently on patchwork with the status of "deferred":
http://patchwork.newartisans.com/patch/246/
Thanks.
Reassuring to know that this is still under the radar.
No really.
The message with the patch did state this:
The intention of this mail is to share my notes and influence you to
considering adding the needed support in the core. In effect the
attached patch is demo-only and not to be construed as a formal
commit request.
There was no further discussion of the patch in the mailing group,
no followup or support. ANd I have not yet spent the time to really
understand what this was all about.
I was (and am) interested in feedback. I didn't make a commit request
because I felt that there could be some reservations on how useful the
patch could be.
All I can say is that I can assure co-operation from my side.
I sense that I had been a bit verbose and a bit too cautious. This
seems
to have turned off any further interest. A lesson for me here.
I leave the table to you.

From the patchwork server side, two things could be considered:
1. Enhance the web interface[1] to show *all* *not DONE* items.
- http://patchwork.newartisans.com/project/org-mode/list/
2. Generate an automated reply to a submitter of the patch giving
him an
URL to the patch. This will enable under the hood access to the
patch
state.
Either or both of 1 and 2 would avoid anxiety on contributor's side
particularly the newer ones.
Thanks,
Jambunathan K.
