This is not about patch acceptance on GitHub. It doesn't stand in contradiction
or competition to ForgeJo (which I do support moving to).

It is simply a tool for sending patches to the mailing list. It has no value
outside of the ML workflow. The service is public, everybody can use it,
patches arrive on the ML - nobody needs to care where they're coming from 
or how they were generated.

All my patches are going this route, btw.
