That certainly is true for some of the patches. In my opinion it does make makes sense if committers enter a comment if they visit a patch and decide not to use it. I think it is worse if there is neither a comment nor a decision half a year after the patch was created. At least for me it is difficult to immediately see if a patch should be applied or not. I prefer explicit decisions (such as resolving an enhancement-request with "wontfix" or postponing to a future milestone for further consideration). I am more concerned about the other (good) patches which are somewhat hidden. Andreas
