Glad to work with such a wonderful team. :) Hello all Amarok devs.

Already subscribed to the list, but I didn't know about the channel, thanks. 
(I even searched for something similar with no luck)

Ah, sorry about that, I should have asked first. A.d. personal tracking - do 
you mean adding myself to the CC list? I wanted to differentiate somehow 
between bugs I work on and these where I am part of the "reporting" side.

One last question, what is the preferred way of letting my patches be reviewed 
once I have developer access? I have 5 small and unrelated iPod patches in my 
git repo - should I:
a) create my amarok git clone on git.kde.org and push there (perhaps to a 
branch)
b) create a branch (ipod-fixes) on git.kde.org:amarok.git and push there
c) send them to amarok-dev using `git format-patch` (the Linux kernel way)
d) upload them one-by-one to reviewboard (this one seems little inconvenient)

I miss something like pull requests from github where a series of patches can 
be reviewed without squelching them into one.
