Thinking through how is this going to work out. - contributor sends patchset - akpm looks at the Sashiko scan and thinks "huh, we might be seeing a new version soon". - Now what? Maybe contributor doesn't like AI, maybe contributor thinks it was all nonsense. But I don't know this! So I send the email "I see that Sashiko said stuff - can we expect a new version?". Which is no improvement over what's happening now. What I would like to have is some reasonably reliable and prompt means by which we all learn contributor's views on the Sashiko scan. One way to bring this about might be to set suitable reply-to headers in the Sashiko->contributor email, along with a few words asking contributor to let everyone know the status. But whatever - let's not overthink this. To start somewhere, let's send that private email, spend a few weeks evaluating then perhaps make adjustments.
