     3  I really like using the mailing list for patches, because the mailing
     4  list is a public, on-the-record conversation that includes everyone.

     6  What about this:
     7
     8  darcs send -o patch.darcspatch
     9  darcs diff -u -p"${PATCHRE}" > patch.diff.txt
     10
     11  and then send both to the mailing list as attachments?  This is more
     12  work for the submitter, as they have to attach the files to a message
     13  and send the message (instead of allowing "darcs send" to send the
     14  message for them).

     16  The good things about this are (a) hopefully everyone can see the
     17  patch contents in-line in the mail and (b) you can add a "cover
     18  letter" -- a message to the mailing list about the patch.
