I'm sorry for your wasted time, but it's not clear (to me at least...) how
postings should be threaded in the U-Boot ml.

The Wiki says:

'correct|"In-reply-to:"|  and|"References:"|' can have many interpretations.

On the ML I see varying ones, and I even see submissions with NO THREADING
AT ALL: the first submit is in a thread, v2 starts a new thread, v3 yet
another one etc.

MY humble interpretation of the Wiki wording is this:

- [PATCH 0/2]
   |
   +->  [PATCH 1/2]
   +->  [PATCH 2/2]
   |   +->  Re: [PATCH 2/2] reviewers comments to patch 2/2
   |   +->  Re: [PATCH 2/2] more reviewers comments to patch 2/2
   |
   +->  Re: [PATCH 0/2] reviewers comments to the patchset (0/2)
   |   +->  Re: [PATCH 0/2] discussion...
   |
   +->  [PATCH v2 0/2] resubmit (In-Reply-To: the first submit)
       |
       +->  [PATCH v2 1/2]
       +->  [PATCH v2 2/2]
       |   ... more discussion - not shown...
       |
       +->  [PATCH v3 0/2] resubmit (In-Reply-To: the first submit)
           |
           +->  [PATCH v3 1/2]
           +->  [PATCH v3 2/2]

What's wrong with this?
Please state in absolutely unambiguous detail what the correct threading is,
and please docuemnt it in the wiki for everybody.

My postings look correctly threaded according to the above interpretation,
as you can see for example on the Gmane threaded interface.
