The two categories (bugfix and feature) that Mark suggested would be
useful.

One of the reasons I post to bug-cfengine rather than emailing Mark
is that I want others who have the same problem as I've just fixed to
be able to Google for it. I dobut anyone except Mark is very
interested in the patches I post /per se/ but they may very well be
concerned with the problem they aim to solve. Does your system have
any way to send the patch description to the list whilst keeping the
patch itself aside?

.nl seems to be the cheapest option. It's about 300 UKP to get to
Norway from here but only half that for Amsterdam. (Of course, I'd be
even more pleased if you all decided to come to lovely Durham!)
