For whoever commits this: Any new options should be described in LINT, and contained in conf/options. Alexander: If you provide patches that people don't have to do any extra work on before committing, you're likely to get a much quicker turnaround. It's just human nature. For your patch, this would include the following differences: - Additional patches for LINT and conf/options - Follow the exact style of the original file, e.g. having spaces after all instances of 'if'. - Remove 'PATCH BEGIN' and 'PATCH END' at the beginning and end of each changed section. Please don't get me wrong; we are grateful for patches almost in any condition. But the ones that are easy to apply and have the style in order are more likely to be processed quickly. Eivind.
