Deliberately sending partial patch sets?

[Bagas Sanjaya]

Hi,

Let's say that there is a contributor who wish to send a patch set (e.g.
20-30 patches in the series) to LKML. But instead of sending the full
series, he either do one of the following:

* Send only the cover letter (analogous to movie trailers)
* Send only a few arbitrary patches in a series that are most important
  (e.g. patch [01,04,11,18,23/30]) (analogous to match highlights)
* Send only the first few patches in a series (i.e. subject of one of
  patches says [09/30]) (analogous to sample book chapters)

The rest of patches are behind closed doors (i.e. not sent), possibly
behind charm-priced (pay)walls.

Is the submission like above acceptable (when in review)?

Thanks.
