Hi Gregory,

There already is a http://ftp.gnustep.org/pub/gnustep/gnustep-patches/ directory.
If you create files in there like gs-base-1.10.0-NSStepperCell-0.1.tar.gz
I think your problem is solved.

Just 2 cents again.

We need a mechanism to make it easier for distributing patches to the existing
release.   I would like to create a patch for the NSStepperCell fix so that
users can download it from someplace without confusion.  It was suggested that
the patch manager on savannah should be used for this, but that system is used
only for patches from contributors for consideration by maintainers.   This is
a patch from a maintainer (me) which needs to be applied under certain
circumstances.

By Critical Patch, I mean any bug which can be called a "show stopper".  We
shouldn't do this for every trifling little bug. :)

Any thoughts?
