As of March 2007, a bash script "fg-submit" is available that simplifies the preparation of patches that are to be submitted to the maintainers. It can be found in '/source/scripts/tools'.  It compares your changes to cvs, creates a diff file and an archive containing your changed files and the diff file. Run this script from within the CVS directory containing your changes.

fg-submit should work with any flavor of Unix/Linux. Windows users may use this script from within a Cygwin bash shell, assuming the necessary Devel tools have been installed.
