Applied, but please put a space after the subsystem prefix and the
colon character in your subject lines in the future.

Doesn't that really look odd to you, the way you did it? "net:Fix"?

Doesn't it look more natural, and consistent with what all other
patch submitters do, if it's "net: Fix"?

Thanks.
