That'd be great. I'll add you to the private CC list for coccinelle
warnings. When you are to do anything about the received private error
report, a simple group reply like "I'll handle this" or "It's a false
warning", plus the fact that we are in different time zone, should be
enough to avoid conflicts between the few people CCed. :)

Thanks,
