IMO, the main reason to use the tracker instead of sumbitting patches
just to the dev list is to keep the track of them :). So that we can
easilly access the patches that have been sent half a year ago, and
were ignored then, but now they could be usefull. For this, I believe,
any patch should be submitted by the user to the tracker, instead of
the list directly (the message will be forwarded to the list from the
tracker anyway). Once it is apllied (or used as a protype for another
patch), it's ticket should be closed.

We could have a separate tracker for this, or use the the GForge ftp
space (there is such thing).

Bernhard,

What is file size limit and the overall quota, in the tracker and the
ftp space? Better ideas?
