+1. When I started reading the "What's cooking", I found it hard to
tell/remember whether text comments apply to the list of patches above
them or below them. If you don't want to make bigger changes to the
format, then even an extra blank line between the section about each
patch series would remove the ambiguity.
Otherwise, I think that "What's cooking" emails are a great service that
you provide to the community. They help mitigate the inconvenience of
using emails rather than pull requests for exchanging and managing
patches :-)
