It's now at https://commitfest.postgresql.org/action/patch_view?id=776 
listed as waiting on you right now.  It's good to put patches into the 
CF application early.  Helps planning, and gives a safety net against 
all sorts of things.  We wouldn't want something this obviously useful 
to get kicked out if, for example, you lost your Internet connection 
over the weekend and then didn't technically qualify as having submitted 
it there before the deadline.  As someone who sweated today for two 
hours when my power at home was turned off to install a new circuit 
breaker, I'm feeling particularly paranoid right now about that sort of 
thing here.

The fact that you got some review feedback before the official CF start 
doesn't mean you can't be listed there right now.  In fact, those are 
things I like to see tracked.  Having links to all of the e-mail 
messages that were important turning points for a feature that changed 
during review is very helpful to reviewers and committers.  And the 
easiest way to keep up with that is to start as early as possible:  add 
it to the app right after the first patch submission.
