What is the preferred way to submit patches?
I would like to provide some patches for the Gentoo documentation. What
is the best way to do this? I can imagine it's something like:

1 Download xml
2 Adjust
3 Create patch
4 Upload to bugzilla

Is this the correct way? And if so what is the best way to download the
xml? Which url should I use?

Regards,

Append ?passthru=1 to a .xml URL to see the source.
