I am going over your patch at the moment.  I am making a few modifications
at the moment (eg. use offset interface to simplify get/set props
functions further).

In general, if the patch is not too big, posting it to the list should be
OK.  If it is fairly large, you might want to post a URL to the patch
instead.  As far as the types of diffs, my favourite is unified (diff -u),
followed by context (diff -c).  The reason for this is so I can read the
patch before applying it and without any context, this is almost
impossible.

Also, I think most people are using mime mail readers these days, so it
should not be a problem to include them as attachments.

James.
