Today another funny guy decided to tamper with the Wiki (this time by
applying rot13 to a full page). Thankfully this doesn't happen often (I
recall only 3 times so far). Still, since I'm the only one monitoring
I'm afraid I could let attacks like pass though. I'm even more concerned
about minor edits which could change drastically the meaning of
sentences, leading users to do something unapproriate. (It may be a
remote possibility that sombody goes through that kind of work, but
still perfectly possible).

Therefore I'd like to have more eyeballs by directing the nightly diffs
emails to a mailing list. I was thinking of dri-patches, since it's just one
mail per day, usually 1-2Kb. Below is yesterday's email as an example. 

Is it OK to send this to dri-patches?
