It doesn't help me, really. It does help people who want to try out a modified version of Vim, and it helps people who make modifications to make their work easier to find. One thing to keep in mind: when it's one project with many separate patches, each with a different owner, you may run into access rights problems. It might be better to setup a separate project for each patch and have a central place that links to them. That also allows people to pick a different site, if they want to.
