I used to go through the effort of generating a patch, scp-ing to a machine with a web browser, and uploading, but that was back when I thought the core cared about the sdm. That was before I realized if you don't have cvs access nobody gives a crap, 3.x-wise. So I post to bboard so someone who notices a problem can find the fix and patch himself... Inefficient but hopefully better than nothing.
<p>
Before flaming look at the 3.x open issue list (many with fixes given in the issue description) or unapplied patch list -- better yet, check the <a href="/sdm/package-patches.tcl?package_id=1&display=Accepted">applied patch list</a>.

And yes I know the mantra "4.x is our focus blah blah blah" by heart thanks. Still there's a lot of people, me included, running sites on 3.x.
