I know that different maintainers have different preferences. For example 
in the subsysteem, where I'd worked for about 10 years the maintainer 
preferred not to be CCed on patches, he preferred to pick up patches from 
his mailing list folders, or whatever arrangement his mail filters 
provided for. I learned already that in ALSA / ASoC it's usual to CC 
maintainers. But I wasn't sure whether that also holds for larger patch 
series. E.g. my main patch series now consists of 14 patches, so, I 
thought, that maybe you would rather not receive multiple copies of the 
entire seriees for each new version both directly in your inbox and in 
the mailing list folder. Or is it indeed your preference to always be 
CCed on all patches? I apologise for re-iterating a question, that 
probably had been addressed multiple times before, maybe it's worth 
documenting this somewhere on ALSA web?

Thanks
