I can understand, and hope other members understand too. At least for me, next, I shall send patch to the members which I can get from 'get_maintainers.pl' and only Cc to qemu-devel. And shall skip qemu-trivial and Michael Tokarev. If any member feels my patch may related with qemu-trivial, please add it in replying mailing list during reply, and mark Cc to qemu-trivial. Welcome any other members' ideas, suggestions or completions. Thanks.
