It's not an opinion. If the goal is to get the files into the
distribution (I can't think of any other purpose served by
mailing a German kbmap to Dave), then it is easier for
him, and in general for all of us who maintain the
distribution, if you submit things using the patch scripts
instead of emailing files. Patch gives us the necessary
context to understand the changes and makes it really
easy for us to apply the changes and push them out.
