Heh, thanks Randy. All too often patches get missed since I don't happen to include the right magic person to Cc. So I generally take a "better to have one Cc too many than miss one" approach when sending patches - otherwise I just end up resending it several times and eventually have to bother Andrew to move it through -mm. I see the point of people not getting things twice, but too many patches slip through the cracks already (and not just my patches, that's a general problem) so I'd rather inconvenience a few people with one extra email than missing the proper maintainer by not Cc'ing the right list. Picking the right list/set of people to Cc is hard!
