Please follow `Documentation/SubmittingPatches` [1]. I was told to
always CC the maintainers (item 7). You should also tag your message in
the subject with `[PATCH]` (item 11). Item 16 talks about sending a pull
request.

I guess this way people will be able to review your patches more easily
and give feedback.

I do not think so.


Thank you for your contribution. I hope the developers will be able to
take a look. I also believe that Takashi is on vacation right now and is
going to be for another week [2].


Thanks,

Paul
