Nice :)
BTW - I see you have a thing called "netdev series report"
I've been meaning to ask someone if they want us to add to SUIE
subsystem tracking (https://netdev.bots.linux.dev/suie.html)
I could easily add a drop down to filter just stmmac patches there.
On the scale of 1 to 10 how useful would that be?
Is there something beyond "active series" that you need to see?
