But my impressions is that, in practice, patches sent to the mailing list are not tracked, more difficult to review, and often, don't get looked at. Having a patch sent to the mailing list only to be ignored is a larger barrier to entry than the registration step. We should ask people to follow a procedure that is like to work for them, not one likely to end in frustration.
