I agree with Daniel here. I prefer the state and delegation of patches.
This way I can easily see what I need to work on. I have people send me
various patches for review, which other people review. When they think
its at a point for me to include it, they delegate the patch to me.

Relying on email to say "Hey Steve this patch is ready" will get lost
in my Inbox (which currently has over 25,000 emails!). Ever since I
started using Patchwork, the number of "lost patches" has dropped
tremendously, because I no longer need to manage them in my Inbox.
