Hi Thomas,

done.

....... and then redistribute your patches (you had
the right idea in terms of subject names in your emails; thanks --
just make them "v2" this time.)  ...

will do, but that may take a few days.

...  You're missing changes to a number of
files as a result of not having read this.

I certainly missed the ChangeLog entries.  Is there more?

2.  Why are you patching this against FVWM 2.5.28?  Use CVS.

two reasons: (1) I had to rebuild 2.5.28 for our systems (replacing 2.4.20)
to get rid of the emacs-23.1 problems with the funny initial window resizing.
(2) I work a lot at home on my notbook without network access.

I have, however, just fetched the CVS.

3.  I'd like to see your patches inlined in your emails and not as
attachments, providing you can turn off "text=flowed", since this
makes reviewing much easier.

will do. I suppose pine (alpine-2.00) does this right.

4.  The original eight separate emails you sent out didn't have any
text to describe the patch; instead it was embedded at the top of the
patch.  Don't do this, use that explanatory text as part of the body
of your email.

will do.
