Is the patch itself signed or just the email? In other words, 3 years 
from now, when I've forgotten all about that patch, will I still be able 
to check the GPG signature?

I don't get this thing about sending patches by email. Unless I'm 
missing something, it seems like a horribly inconvenient solution. I 
don't want to get a bunch of patches in my inbox, and then have to save 
each attachment so I can start applying each patch by hand.

That means that each contributor should find his own web server or I 
have to give a shell account to each one, right? Hmmm.... :(

Cheers,
Daniel.
