Hey, you're preaching to the converted. I _prefer_ uuencoded patches
(even shars and tarballs), since I just query-pr -F XXXX | uudecode. :-)

The only reason I mention it is because I'm under the impression that
the majority of committers prefer patches provided inline. I've just
trying to make it easier for team-mates.

But since I now know that there are at least 3 other active committers
who have preferences similar to my own, I think I'll shush and let the
rest speak for themselves. :-)

Ciao,
Sheldon.
