Please stop sending large patches to the mailing list.  IMHO, this is
worse than junk-mail spam -- at least those are small.  If you have
some wonderful patch set, by all means send it to Cygnus and announce
it to the list.  But, please don't subject all of us to 100KB of "patch
of the day".

Thanks,
