I would like to add my support for this effort and take the opportunity to
thank you Alex for not only offering to do something about this issue, but
for all the incredibly valuable work you do with LLVM Weekly.
Although I keep a fairly close eye on llvm-dev, I frequently find stuff in
LLVM Weekly that I find worth a closer look.

I am not sure how common this is, but I simply can't keep up with
llvm-commits, so I don't try to. If I am not a subscriber/reviewer on a
patch, I don't know it exists. I believe the "Review Corner" would be an
awesome addition to the summary you send out on Mondays.

One thing I'd like to bring up is the cadence of re-appearance of patches
in the review corner. I believe it wouldn't necessarily be useful to
disqualify patches from future inclusion if they've been included before.
OTOH, I think having the same patches there every week wouldn't be very
useful either.

Thanks once again for the work you do with LLVM Weekly.
