i hope we haven't. but i might be guilty myself. unfortunately, so many small, tight bugfixes go unapplied or rejected. "maybe" seems to count as rejection. it's hard to keep up the spirit. i don't blame anybody. reviewing patches is hard, and thankless. and speaking for myself, submitters are sure the world revolves around their favorite patch. but imho, plan 9 would be better for more patches being applied. i'm willing to put my money where my mouth is. - erik
