Generally, most Apache projects appreciates if the contributor submits a diff file, instead of the entire file. That can most of the time prevent changes made after your snapshot, being lost. And you should generate the diff file against the CVS HEAD of the active branch, so first check out the CVS source, then issue for instance a cvs -q diff -u NDC.java >NDC.diff And send in the NDC.diff file. Some projects (like Log4J) prefer to receive the diff files in the issue tracking system, as one can easier attach comments, like if it has been applied, and a discussion around the patch can be collected in one place. Hope this helps you help the Log4J project.
