"reply to cover letter" is perfectly fine on this list as well (it never
occurred to me that it would be unacceptable for any list in the first
place) -- but where did you respond to:

  [edk2] [PATCH v2 0/5] OvmfPkg: simply use the Bochs interface for vmsvga
  [email protected]">http://mid.mail-archive.com/[email protected]

?

... Ahhh, wait, now I see where our misunderstanding is. :) By
"formally", I did not mean that you should respond to every single patch
(#1 through #4) separately, with your R-b. Responding under the cover
letter, or even just in this thread, is perfectly fine. What I'm asking
for instead is that you please "formally" spell out your Reviewed-by
tag. In edk2 we strongly prefer carrying R-b tags from the mailing list
to commit messages verbatim (i.e. with the clipboard). We dislike
synthesizing formal R-b tags from messages like "sure, reviewed by me
too".

So, again, in this context, "formally" only means that you please repeat
your "reviewed too" message "formally" with an R-b tag, spelled out. A
response in this thread is perfectly fine.

Sorry about the confusion!
Laszlo
