Regarding our wineconf discussion about patchwatcher spam on
wine-patches and filtering. Perhaps we need 2 email address patches
can be sent to. My thinking is the flow could be something like:
1. By default everyone sends a patch to wine-patches
2. If a patch gets rejected the author gets a failure mail in private,
and now retries or testing patches should go to wine-patches-testing N
times until they get it right
3. once its right, patchwatch could then forward the new good patch to
wine-patches or could send an email to the dev saying that its good
enough to now send to wine-patches.
Doing it like this, if everyone follows the rules, we won't get a ton
of patchwatcher retries filling up wine-patches.
