Well, I've done it. I've downloaded the source and made my first set of
modifications to an open source product and now the maintainer would
like me to submit a patch back to him. Question is: how do I do that? :)

Also, if you were maintaining an OSS project, would you be insulted if
someone submitted a patch that fixed problems but also reformatted all
the code to make it more readable? (I removed a ton of perlisms and
replaced them with English.)
