I'm trying to train Walter as much as the community.  He needs to actively work
to favor patches (regardless of who they're from) over doing it himself.  He
knows he's set in his ways and that they aren't the best nor that they'll be
sustainable.  So, hopefully these periodic gentle nudges will help him evolve
his processes some.  That and the occasional in-person application of a
sufficiently hard smack upside the head. :)

That said, I do agree with your change of goals.  All things being equal, I'd
like to see them coming from as broad a collection of people as possible.

Lastly, I did spend some time looking at bug 3516 (the struct dtor bug) this
weekend.  It's not going to be a trivial fix.

Take it easy,
Brad
