yesterday I tried to send an email to Jeremy Kerr asking if there was 
some way to tweak patchwork to allow DaveM a way to signal net-next 
being closed - perhaps some message at 
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/list/  Baring that, I 
wondered if it would be possible to submit a dummy "[PATCH net-next] 
net-next closed until futher notice" patch,  and fake-out the date to be 
some point in the future, so it would appear at the top of the list of 
patches.
