When I read the words "here is a patch" (quite possibly, the 4
sweetest you can say to a developer (while not in bed, anyway)) I had
to post this list that, once upon a time, Per helped me with:

E-mail that developers receive can be categorized as follows (ordered
from least encouraging to most encouraging; too many from the
beginning of the list will make you want to give up writing free
software):

1. Your program didn't compile. Do you know why?
2. I didn't read the README file, how do I install your
    software?
3. I'm too lazy to read the documentation, how do I use this feature?
4. The documentation for using this feature is unclear.
5. Can you add this feature?
6. Your program doesn't work.
7. Thanks for writing this cool software.
8. The documentation for using this feature is unclear, here is
   a fix.   
9. There's a bug in your cool software, and here's the patch.
10. Here's some code that implements a new feature and makes your
software even cooler.
