But on the other hand, the most important thing is that it gets done, not who ends up doing it - especially since it's such a trivial cleanup, so I choose to see it as my initial patches just getting the ball rolling. It would have been nice with at least an email along the lines of "I know how we can do all those patches in a jiffy, mind if I just go along and do that?", but I'll live.
