Thanks for the efforts. I have a few questions: > For the purposes of this demo the patches submitted for review were > generated by a script I wrote.

Can you not pick up the patches directly from the mailing list? I mean, we know of the problems patchwork has (like silently dropping certain base64 / utf8 encoded messages), so we should rather try and get a more reliable feed for the patches? > Any one can upload patches to this server after creating an account on > it.

Is my understanding correct that I have to use or create a google account in any case to participate in this type of work? What if I am not willing to accept Google's Terms of Service, or to register an account with google for other reasons? > After signing up one should create a password for authentication with > the server.

How can we arrange to keep the mailing list in sync?
