I'm not on lkml and the archives I found do not list who were Cc'd that
I can see - it might have tried to send a copy to v9fs-developer that is
held up in the moderation queue for all I know :/

I'm not complaining I didn't get a copy (if I ever find time to work on
these, I can work through the list on the website) - I just need to know
how to find the report corresponding to patchs being sent.

Thanks, for some reason I only thought of bug?id= which didn't work,
this is perfect.
