-In the body of the mail, you should first include
-a "pseudo-header" that gives the package and
-version number. This should be separated by a blank
-line from the actual headers.

Patches
=======
-Patches can be uploaded to the incoming/ directory on
-ftp.gtk.org. Please follow the instructions there, and include
-your name and email address in the README file.
+Patches should also be submitted to bugzilla.gnome.org. If the
+patch fixes an existing bug, add the patch as an attachment
+to that bug report.
+
+Otherwise, enter a new bug report that describes the patch,
+and attach the patch to that bug report.
-If the patch fixes a bug, it is usually a good idea to include
-all the information described in "How to Report Bugs".
+Bug reports containing patches should include the PATCH keyword
+in their keyword fields. If the patch adds to or changes the GTK
+programming interface, the API keyword should also be included.
+
+Patches should be in unified diff form. (The -u option to GNU
+diff.)
