Just one thing though, I picked a random patch and started reading.
However, the commitfest page doesn't link to anywhere that actually
describes *what* the patch is trying to do. Many patches do have the
design and the patch in one page, but some don't.

I suppose what happens is the original patch comes with design and
later a newer version is posted with just changes. The commitfest page
points to the latter, losing former in the archive somewhere.

Have a nice day,
