This is also an interesting example for a tracker. If we had one, all
discussion on the patch would be in one place, but I am thinking that
would require all posting to happen in a browser, or somehow have emails
tagged to attach to each item. Is that something that can happen
easily? I don't know. Would the repost of a patch be attached to the
original submission?
