One might arguably consider it inadequate.  Beside, as long as patches
are reviewed in a reasonable amount of time, I don't mind---but to be
honest, I consider that more than one month is not so reasonable for
patches like this one.  ;-)

In fact, I think we'd greatly benefit from using a distributed revision
control system like GNU Arch: it really makes it easier to collaborate,
both for the occasional contributors and for the maintainer(s).  Thanks
to it, I found myself contributing to projects where I wouldn't even
have tried to do so if they were using a centralized RCS like CVS or
Subversion.
