Yeah, that would be true if all guys asking here would know about the
cvsweb possibility and how to use it. The link on the web page is quite
hidden and in the INSTALL/FAQ it is still a "to be implemented" item. The
"look in the mail archive first before asking here" messages aren't very
helpful either, as long as the archive is not searchable via WebGlimpse (I
searched once an hour for a specific patch from H.J.Lu, back then the
archive covered only three months).

Remember, I don't want to put more load on you, I want to show you ways to
reduce the load.

What could/should be done:

- mention cvsweb in INSTALL/* (I could prepare some text if you like)
- bigger link to cvsweb with more comments on main web page
- add an "X-Look-here-first-for-trivial-snapshot-patches: <cvsweb-URL>"
header to all mail sent out by majordomo ;-)
- mention cvsweb in your replies from time to time
- searchable mail archive

Bye,
Franz.
