+1. As a patch author, I have much more personal investment in a patch than anyone else, and I'm happy to maintain a wiki page if it's going to get my patches through the process more efficiently. But I also agree with Josh Drake's comment about a single point of entry. If patch authors are updating the wiki, and reviewers are using the wiki to guide their efforts, what purpose does the -patches mailing list serve? Does sending an email to -patches on top of submitting the patch on the wiki actually buy us anything? It seems redundant.
