Also: I think some patches have all relevant maintainers thinking "someone else would be a better maintainer to review this patch [but I might or might not review it if still being pinged in a month]" or "this patch should be reviewed by someone able to review it as a whole rather than my reviewing only the parts I can approve" or the opposite "this patch should be reviewed by a set of relevant maintainers rather than using GWP". You don't want gcc-patches clogged up with people making these indications that someone else should review the patch but it might be of use to have an off-list way of tracking such indications. -- Joseph S.
