Hi Thomas,

Finally you tricked Daniel to take them, From my POV this isn't "playing maintainer". You stopped reacting on the issue and I thought I make it easier for you (and others) to handle the patches in case you didn't take because of being busy with other stuff.

Which made the whole exercise go into /dev/null I didn't add that stable annotation because I didn't want to add it without you being ok with it. And actually it's easy to get a patch into stable that isn't annotated. The other way round is harder.

To be fair Daniel said to take my pull request a few days before your tip-bot told me that you finally took the patch. I could argue that it was your turn to tell Daniel that you took a part of the patches that were in my pull request. (But I don't as the situation it handled now and even if not, the only bad thing that would have happend is that another patch is duplicated in the history. shrug)
