There is a shell/perl script collection called submaster
(http://www.rocklinux.org/submaster.html) that implements patch
queuing and voting (+distributed use).
Although our queue is usually quite long:
https://www.rocklinux.net/submaster/smadm.cgi
55 Patches open patches - and this is with >50 applied today ...
With this QA and voting queue the commit rate gets quite irregular,
see the graph where submaster is used for rock-linux since Febrary
2004:
