Hi,

The patch submission document has an inconsistency regarding who should be "To" and "Cc" for approved patches:

To maintainer, cc list:

212 After the list reached a consensus that it is a good idea to apply the 213 patch, re-send it with "To:" set to the maintainer [*1*] and "cc:" the 214 list [*2*] for inclusion.

To list, cc maintainer:

339 (4) The list forms consensus that the last round of your patch is 340 good. Send it to the list and cc the maintainer.
