"last night"? That's a lot of expectation. Realize that here we are collaborating with folks all around the world, different time zones.

"last night"? That's a lot of expectation. Realize th= at here we are collaborating with folks all around the world, different tim= e zones. In general, I wait for 4 days or so before pinging back on that sa= me "bug report" (quoting that because that report could also be a= feature request or a patch, or anything).

What is more confusing
is the fact that I see patches being discussed on this
(emacs-devel@gnu.o= rg) mailing list instead of bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org.

Usually patch discussion comes to emacs-devel if the discussion doesn'= t resolve on that bug thread itself, or if more user feedback is needed.
=C2=A0
Out of curiosity if = I have a patch to submit which list should I use ?

[1] http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug= =3D31662

I would use the same bug t= hread for patch proposals too.
