Sorry, one more note that I meant to combine with the previous message:

There is a new patch status available, 'rejected'.  This was provided
because using 'needs-work' in some cases might be misleading in giving
the impression that if a patch were improved it could be accepted (see
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149729).  Luis and I talked
about it for a while and there were some reservations about adding this
status, but it seemed like it made the most sense.  Hopefully it will
only be used when necessary and when accompanied with an explanation
about why the patch is being rejected.


Cheers,
Elijah
