No.  Doesn't exist.  The webpage isn't maintained with the actual details...   I'd say that, yes, the last bunch is fine to check in, IMHO.  For the lib* and the */ changes, you'd need to break these down and have someone that knows just what to do with each hunk review it.  So, for example, the go changes should go to Ian, and he can say, yes check them in, or more likely, please submit/check them into the master go repo.  The one in gcc is a shadow of the master.

Just ping any patch you don't get approval for once a week, every week, until approved or rejected.
