More importantly, there was no way in hell I would synchronize with a CVS 
tree, so CVS was a non-entity as far as patch submittal was concerned.

The BK documentation is _nothing_ more than a alternative to
"SubmittingPatches".

Anyway, I'm not going to discuss this any more. If somebody has actual 
construcive ideas about trying to improve other tools or putting the BK 
docs in some place that is equally obvious and easily available for all 
parties but somehow "less disturbing" to people with a weak stomach, go 
for it. But I'm not interested in yet another religious whine-war.
