But I also have to get things working on 20 different Linux/UNIX/Unix-Like variants. So I have 20 different OS specific directories. You would think you could be a little more tolerant of a person new to the list. I submitted my patches to what I thought was a patch list, not a general email list. So, I am sorry for my ignorance of the list/patching ediquit.

I will follow it from now on, but I may drop membership to the list. It takes a lot of time and git is just one tool of many, I have to use. I still have to use bitkeeper for the sources that use them. So please allow me time to adjust to your methods.
