for a long time i believed my work is done as soon as i have a working patch and i push it, it's on the reviewers then to check it and either push it or ask for changes. pushing the changes is only half the work.
the rest of it involves checking which patches are pending, pinging the reviewers after a reasonable amount of time, making sure the patches are rebased and fixing issues pointed out in the reviews. if one isn't paying attention, these can quickly pile up and then it would be hard for both the reviewer and the uploader to navigate through that pile.
