Also, if you do want to park a patch in the commitfest, setting it to "Waiting on Author" is effectively that. I used to add patches to the commitfest to run CFBot on them, but some time back I bit the bullet and set up github/cirrus to run on my own github repository. I highly recommend that. It only takes a few clicks, and the user experience is much better: push a branch to my own github repository, and cirrus CI runs automatically. -- Heikki Linnakangas Neon (https://neon.tech)
