I'm with Greg on this one. I felt his original complaint made alot of
sense and this doesn't really deal with it. I'd much rather see
-patches go away or maybe become an alias to -hackers. If the patch is
too big then perhaps either compress it or provide a link to it when
it's submitted. If hosting for patches is an issue then perhaps provide
a way for patches to be hosted on a PG server. Honestly, I'd be happy
to put up any PG patches sent to me on a well connected server. I'm not
sure how easy it'd be to automate that though (and prevent
spammers/etc), but perhaps people have some suggestions?
Thanks,
Stephen
