Please type
C-h B (describe-beta)
and see
** Creating patches for submission
==================================

I was looking for documentation of the patches mailing list keywords a
while back, too, and was unable to find it (the pointers Adrian gave are
good, but don't contain this info). Maybe the best way ATM is to browse
the xemacs-patches archives and see how people use them. IMHO it would
be good if these would be documented somewhere (maybe just add the
keywords to the docs from describe-beta). Here's how I've understood
them:
A = APPROVE - reviewed, approved, often combined with COMMIT
C = COMMIT - committed to CVS
S = SUPERSEDES - a revised patch
V = VETO - a rejected patch, and the reason
Q = QUERY - need more info
R = RECOMMEND - recommended for some version
PATCH - yep
Use the abbreviation in subjects, and the expanded form in the start of
the message body.
