Dan,

Creating a on or more tracker request for the changes would be best.   Simply 
explain the
issue and how the patch resolves it along with the patch itself. It would be
best to patch against the current TOB ipmitool version.  You can then request a
code review on the ipmitool-devel alias and simply reference the tracker
request.

This is generally what I have done in the past for fairly straight forward 
changes.

Any one else want to chime in on this?

Thanks for you interest in helping,
Jim
