I have a very minor objection: I think it's aethetic clutter to add unnecessary file extensions (we're not DOS or Windows), and any decent editor should figure out that it's a patch from either the file format or the fact that it's in a debian/patches directory. But I don't feel strongly enough about it to do anything other than just write this message. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
