I see. Well the plan (the next step) as I see it is to have it keep  
delivering the full patch emails to subscribers, but strip out the  
code before posting to the wiki page. So yes, casual subscribers will  
still see the patches. Is that really a problem in a mailreader, where  
you can easily skip them ? Developers need to see the code for patch  
review, casual subscribers can benefit from seeing activity, and I  
feel the advantage of having a single discussion area for everyone is  
large (at the moment). If more of you have an opinion, please send it.
