Please don't feel bad when a patch doesn't make it through, I'm not very
familiar with the progress of this particular patch but it happens
regularly.  I work full time with mediawiki and If you search gerrit for
'owner:"EBernhardson <[email protected]>" status:abandoned' You
will find just shy of 100 patches over a year and a half that didn't make
it in.  I also have about 750 patches that did get merged in that
timeframe.

I'm just trying to say, don't get frustrated. These things happen. I can't
comment too much on this particular patch.
