Ok, no problem, just not sure what do I have to resend.

Should I resend the whole serie of three patches 1/3 2/3 3/3? 
I received an e-mail confirming the acceptance of patch 3/3 on your
staging tree, no news about patch 1/3 yet, so it may confuse you if I
resend all of them.

Should I just send this patch outside the serie as a standalone patch?

regards, Pedro.
