I looked at the patchwork tooling and it didn't seem to easily integrate 
into my work flow.  It seems to be designed with the idea that you use 
their tools to pull and manage patches.  I don't think those tools will 
scale to the volume of patches qemu-devel sees though.  Plus, there's no 
easy way to deal with the fact that other maintainers may not use it.  
Now there are a few thousand patches and trolling through would take ages.

Not really sure how to best proceed.  I'm open to suggestions.
