To keep up to date all you need to do is pull the GIT tree regularly.
Maybe a mailing list for stable-commits could be added, like mm-commits?

Oh, we can easily do that as we have a script that notifys the submitter
that the patch has been added.  If you all don't mind getting the noise,
I'd be glad to make that change.

It probably does.  Unfortunately I've been traveling _way_ too much
lately and got behind on the patch queue.  I'll try to remember to push
out a new release sooner, as it looks like the majority of my travel is
coming to an end (only 2 trips this month...)

 I'm wondering if it makes sense to do more regular releases of -stable
 so that the patchqueue doesn't build up so much.   It's painful
 to sit down and review lots of patches in one sitting.
 Additionally, with lots of change, it's a real pain to figure out
 which one of the 50 patches that went into the last -stable
  makes my machine not boot  (which I had to do recently).

Maybe a mailing list for stable-commits could be added, like mm-commits?

Good idea, we can just CC: that list when we commit a patch.
