It's not so much wanting to see "all patches", but rather wanting to
be able to see the discussion of a patch. Perhaps if there is no
other vger list cc'ed on the message, there could be a reply-to: lkml
header set, to redirect messages someplace where it will be more
visible?
After all, we're talking about "THE REST", so these are patches which
don't have some kind of list associated with it, more or less by
definition. And having discussions about a patch only show up on
patches@ list would be suboptimal. If we were to address that,
perhaps that would make more people happy who are currently subscribed
to lkml?
And yes, I am subscribed to lkml, which I read^H^H^H^H skim with one
finger resting lightly on the 'D' key. If there was a good summary
service (hey, maybe we could use one a LLM to provide a summary, with
lore link if people wanted more detail --- only half-kidding) then
that would be great, but I do like to keep a light touch on the pulse
of kernel development, and while LWN is a super-valuable, I'm looking
for the next level of detail...
