There is difference text file with necessary changes attached to this message.
I see it with my newsreader and newswebgate as well.

In my own case I prefer description how, what and why is changed becouse it
can help next MegaPOV coordinator and can be some kind of tutorial for
beginners.

Am I wrong or my own patches fits in your styleguide ?
I think I made rather patch directory instead of repository.

I agree. It will be difficoult but since I'm mostly involved in translation
project I have no time for any better organization at this moment. It would be
graet if patch repository could be holded somehow on www.povray.org but than
it could be mistaken that it is official. Also the Team should be twice as big
as is then.
