either here or the sf tracker works. the sf tracker has the advantages 
of being less subject to accidental deletion and of making the patch 
available to others while it waits on us.  

we are VERY baddly backloged. all of us have lives outside of gaim, most 
of us are students, and have school taking up a majority of our time. so 
gaim is reglegated to our free time, and in that time we are trying to 
stuff in answering support issues, coding to fix bugs, coding to get 
stuff done, and evaluating patches. the patches have suffered the worst 
in the time crunch.

we recently had trouble with the website, and lost most of the newwer 
pages, that one hasn't been replaced yet. it used to bounce you to the 
submit new item page in the patch tracker. 


I'm sorry we are slow at getting to stuff, we do the best we can though.
