We are still looking at all your patches. We are going to add more of

Just needs a bit more time and testing. 
We noticed them all ;-) 

We find it easier if the author of the patches is suplying some example

to work! Thanks for those examples.
Perhaps some more for all your patches? Most of the time is just a
matter of not having enough time to work more quickly.
We want to be more or less sure that there arn't too many bugs left in
paches before we add them.
