Are more and more patches getting lost lately?

[Nanako Shiraishi <nanako3@lavabit.com>]

I noticed that recently there are many patches sent to the list
that are left unapplied (and many of them are from you).  Many
of them look useful or at least promising to become useful.

What can we, the mailing list readers, do to help these patches
applied?  Ask the authors of individual patches about their
progress?
