Anyway, here it is as an attachment. I too think that sending rc patches along with the email is better, especially for longterm branches which tend to see their patch size drop quickly. In fact it offers more flexibility for sending updates when something is known to be broken, and I'm really not convinced at all that anyone downloads the longterm pre-releases without having received the announcement email ! Just my 2 cents, Willy
