Hi Khem / all,
A few people have been asking for access to patchwork recently, and it seems
like it isn't possible to create an account at the moment. Can we come up with
a plan to solve this?
Thanks,
Paul

It's also sad that the oe-core patchwork isn't really usable as it's
not detecting patches that have been merged. Who's the right person
to investigate this?

The patchwork has same issue as wiki w.r.t to spam and phony account creations,
disabling the register page from active links reduces it tremendously. I will put interactions
on wiki on how to still use it after register link is not shown. The functionality is still there
but it can be seen on website.

its a heuristic and best effort approach its not totally automatic. e.g. if V2 of a patch is send
and V1 is still there then it might close V1 if hashes are same. OE-Core patchwork is mainly
for reference as it was decided for cherry picking patches etc. for local use its not the patch
management solution for OE-Core as much as it is for other layers in there.

FWIW I'm having a lot of local success with subject line (commit
summary) matching as I have a script which moves emails around IMAP
depending on the subject line being in the git repo. Its just a quick
hacky script though, nothing special...
Cheers,
Richard
