sigh. 
I wont be able to do this change until tonight or tommorow morning. I
think the process i am using to re-generate patches maybe too consuming?
Maybe you could offer some advice. Heres what i do:
1. clone Daves latest tree localy
2. clone another tree from that
3. create patch on second clone
4. compile; test;compile;test until looks reasonable
5. commit with the comments
6. submit
7. build other patches on top (example batching in this case)
8. feedback on patch comes back
9. Re-do steps #2-#6

My steps #2-#6 are expensive; is there a way to optimize that process?
 
cheers,
