Note (for Alexandre): how would you prefer for us to track dependencies between patches ? Submit each time a patch agains fresh CVS with all previous patches sent (with an ever growing changelog) or do you prefer (like here) a lot of patches dependant one on the others ? If it's the latter, do we need to do 'letter tracking' as Dimi did ?
In general separate patches are better; the exception is if they are fixes to a previous patch then it's better to resend all so I don't have to try to understand the broken version before reading the fix.
And yes, in either case please find a way to clearly mark the sequence, don't rely on the submission order because mail doesn't always arrive in the correct order.
