I see that you have a lot of people addressed as 'To', which usually
means that nobody is going to apply the patches, because none of us knows
who should be responsible ;-)

Is the plan still for Russell to pick them up in his tree? Please clarify
in the introductory mail what you would like to happen (more review, 
apply to some tree, get Acks, ...) and change the recipient list accordingly.
