But *submitters* did use it until it went down. So it was useful for tracking unreviewed patches, not for improving reviewing. Right now, I have no way to check what unreviewed patches there may be interesting for me apart from searching the gcc-patches mailing list. Even the psychological effect of having your patch tracked somewhere instead of completely ignored would be effective. Perhaps more importantly, it showed which parts of the compiler were more in need of further reviewers. I think it was really bad that we lost the patch tracker. Cheers, Manuel.
