not so long ago there was some custom thingy that was running on the u-boot website that'd automatically grab patches from the mailing list and try to file them away so they wouldnt get lost. but i cant seem to find it any more. is it gone ?
No, it is not gone, it only starts to bitrot :(
It also never by itself grabbed patches, but the idea was to post the patches to its own email account which in turn sent acknowledgements to the mailinglist _including_ a unique tracking number which was needed for automatic handling of follow-up mail.
Unfortunately the original implementor is not available anymore and we currently do not see how to finish the missing bits, especially the automatic handling of the status of patches.
If someone on this list with (solid) Perl knowledge volunteers to pick up the strings, let me know offlist.

How about looking at installing patchwork on denx.de? Was it evaluated and found lacking? At least you will be starting with non-broken perl. ;-)

Looks like patchwork is non-broken *python* (not perl) and uses Django as well. Mod patchwork +1. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Patchwork is free software, and is available from the patchwork website. Patchwork is built on the django web framework. Patchwork includes the django-registration application. Icons from the Sweetie icon set. --------------------------------------------------------------------------
