Yes, but to me "delivery path" means the path from where the patch has
been developed through reviewers, other developers that change/improve
it etc. until it hits it's destination and gets delivered to ...
well, to where? In our case to that is the mailing list respective
PatchWork. This is where we deliver our patches to. The delivery
path ends there.

Best regards,
