Are you suggesting that omission of a patch on the 'fest' page means
that you are bumped from the fest? Note that Tom asked on July 1 if
there were any missing entries that hadn't been plucked out of the
lists (there were).
If that's the case, that would suggest that it is the patch author's
responsibility to to update the fest entry (or at least, make sure it
was updated). That may already be the case -- i'm not sure -- and I'm
not saying that's wrong, but if you are going to adopt a strict policy
(which btw I have no problem with) it's probably better to remind
stragglers to get with the program a week or so the fest begins,
especially on the last fest of the release cycle.
