A [patchcomment] nodetype is in order then (smells like a good idea to me).
&lt;p&gt;
A few [pmdev]ils have become frustruated with just waiting around without any consideration/explanation of why their patches were rejected, thinking that their work is for nothing ( is it because most gods aren't that active, or whatever?).
&lt;br&gt;
It's a shame to have [pmdev]ils lose interest (btw - I sympathise with the [gods], it is a tough job, I know what it's like).
&lt;p&gt;
I say we implement patch comments regardless of how this 1/5th god idea turns out (&lt;B&gt;&lt;big&gt;calling all [pmdev]ils&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/B&gt;: all this needs is a [patchcomment] nodetype, [patchcomment display page], [patchcomment edit page], and a patch for [patch display page] to include the patchcomments for that particular patch, and a addapatch form -- if you need help/ideas, ask away -- actually, you could get away with simply editing [patch display page] to include a form for creating nodes of type note, with the root_node set to that particular patch id -- which is better?).
&lt;p&gt;
BTW, any ideas on when the next, if any, batch of gods is coming out? (it's been so long since it's been mentioned/discussed, I completely forgot if any were scheduled to happen).
