That feature has a bug (or enhancement request) associated. The benefit of it is that I can see myself the progress of the patch i am working on, as bugzilla can keep track of the different versions of the patch. That can also help in sharing the patch with other developers in its early infancy stage. I am not sure that is worse than putting the patch on a random server somewhere on the interweb. Then when I feel the patch is in a good enough shape, I then send it to the list and close the bug. Not that I am saying this *should* be the way to go for everybody, but well, it works for me :-) Cheers, Dodji. -- OpenedHand Ltd.
