| This is an idea that has alot of merit.  While it would result  in  some
| inconvienence,  in  that  the  patch  would  have  to  pass  through the
| moderator resulting in some delay reaching the end user of the  program,

| patches.

Bill Randle (comp.sources.games) and I already do this *if we are sent the
patches*.  I'm not certain about Rich Salz and comp.sources.unix; but we
can't post what we haven't been sent by the author of the original package.
