Agreed. Also, if you do want to park a patch in the commitfest, setting 
it to "Waiting on Author" is effectively that.

I used to add patches to the commitfest to run CFBot on them, but some 
time back I bit the bullet and set up github/cirrus to run on my own 
github repository. I highly recommend that. It only takes a few clicks, 
and the user experience is much better: push a branch to my own github 
repository, and cirrus CI runs automatically.
