Can I get superquick overview of "why gerrit?". e.g. the problems we
have that gerrit fixes. 
Gerrit will prevent exactly what you describe below, that is people having to
harvest across the mailing list for patches and never being quite sure if
something was missed.
My biggest concern has always been that patches
go into gerrit and disappear in an out of sight out of mind sort of
thing.
Once:
 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51159
is in place, that cant happen really. OTOH you should start using it now, so
that we do have a big 'how do I use this thing' confusion on switchover.
Best,
