That is true, but complicates the community support process and involves
multiple service providers. The sourceware hosted projects already know
how to interact with and have working relationships with the maintainers
for sourceware.
My strong preference is to host patchwork on sourceware for sourceware
projects. At present that will likely be glibc and perhaps binutils-gdb.
I didn't know gcc was using patchwork.
Cheers,
Carlos.
