Yes - thank you!

A procedural question: 

Generally, what should the process be to get a patch handled?  Add it to bugzilla?  Discuss it on bugzilla?  (please say no)
(Does a bugzilla-centric approach really work??)

Now specifically: does anyone here *really* think that we're going to get a resolution to #788 (the flow control problem) on bugzilla?? :-)   Perhaps we should have a discussion with intent to make a decision on the openmoko-kernel list, and kill that bug once and for all.
