And who agrees with patches ? I have sent some of my patches for Firefox
in their bugzilla in august and still got no other reaction than "Ben,
can you look into this ?" And I asked for a review last month... If we
have to wait for months to get an answer as to what they think about our
patches, we can't do anything.
