It's not a great way, because it will be way to easy for it to get
lost in my inbox.  This is doubly true for a new feature patch, since
I'll undoubtably defer it until after MM2.1 final.

You don't have to be registered for the Mailman project to post
patches, you just have to be a registered user on SF.  This is
essential because I may need to contact you with questions or
comments, and that's not possible with anonymous patches or bug
reports.

If registering with SF is too much of a burden, then the next best
thing is to get some existing mailman-developers member to submit your
patch for you.
