Any patch that

-	does not break things

-	fits into the spirit of the currnt implementation

-	offers useful new features

-	conforms to coding style standards

-	does not need more time to integrate than I would need to
	write this from scratch

Unfortunately, many people who send patches to me do not follow
these simple rules.
