The backlog is now down to ~2300 patches. I suppose another check I could do is to try applying patches to the tree and mark those that don't apply as 'Changes Requested' and email submitters about it.

I'm open to ideas or volunteers to help me do this and hopefully automate it. > I also want to start an open public patch review as discussed in my > GNU Tools Cauldron BoF for glibc. +1 Siddhesh
