Then we can formulate a policy on top of that: for example, if a patch

reminder to update the status; if the patch has been 'Pending' for 6
months and the patch person has been unresponsive, no more patches are
accepted from that person until he does the upstreaming of the ones he
already got into oe-core. Something like that.

With so many maintainers on so many different layers/etc we would need
some sort of billboard somewhere listing the names of people currently
on the "naughty" list ;-)

Yes, something similar to http://recipes.yoctoproject.org

And the autobuilder could automatically reject or flag a patch that adds custom 
'Pending' patches, if the patch author is determined to be on the 'naughty' 
list :-)

What would you do to the poor sod that sends a patch upstream
(i.e. Pending) that is not being moved on by the upstream holders?
Punish him by making his patch (and potentially all others he
has created) invalid?  Seems a bit harsh...
