Not too explicitly, but I think Andrew mentions it in "The Perfect Patch":

just combine that w/ the new patch you posted this afternoon.

The archives show this as being posted today at ~2:00pm EDT, but I
seem to have missed it? Could you resend it just to me?

he/she will probably have other quirks too... :-)
