Another discouraging thing when I was just starting out was sending a
out a patch and just getting radio silence (especially the first one, I
wasn't sure if it even sent out properly!). Perhaps in the main list, we
could get people to tag with [FIRST PATCH] or something when sending in
their first patch.
If the patch is not desired, then we should explain why it wasn't
desired instead of just leaving them hanging. I know Junio is too busy
to say "hey, I'm picking this patch up" to every single patchset, but if
a patch is desired, perhaps the rest of us could pick up the slack and
say, "hey, your patchset was picked up by Junio in his gitster repo on
this branch".
I absolutely *love* this idea!
Cheers!
