Please consider that it is just like being on the list and nothing
else to be in "seen". It merely is another place some patches I've
"seen" are published, to help those of you who find "git fetch &&
git log -pW origin/master..origin/topic" a more convenient way to
review the changes. This is outlined in the note I send out
occasionally.

If you think that v2 needs a few more days' exposure to receive more
feedback from reviewers, and that v3 might be incomplete before
waiting for their feedback, just saying so as a response to the
"What's cooking" message is a very effective way to make sure I'll
wait for an updated iteration. Such a comment on individual topics
is *not* limited to the author of the topic, e.g.

https://lore.kernel.org/git/owlyil264yew.fsf@fine.c.googlers.com/

is an example (but the particular example was sent a bit too
late---such a "wait, don't merge, an update is coming" needs to come
before the topic is merged down to 'next'.

https://lore.kernel.org/git/13f08ce5-f036-f769-1ba9-7d47b572af28@gmail.com/

is an example of a reviewer sending a "stop, I have an improvement
to suggest on this one I'll send soon" on a topic by somebody else.

https://lore.kernel.org/git/Zr2_4sNu56_frqlr@tanuki/

is an example of the author saying "this topic of mine should be
complete already", which is a bit less usual and takes some finesse
to avoid sounding too self-promoting (this particular example does
so well).
