Merely saying _what_ you are doing isn't good enough. We can tell what a patch does just by reading it. What we can't always tell is _why_ you would want to do it. That is what needs to be explained. The explanation doesn't have to be terribly long or detailed, but you should not omit it entirely. Alan Stern
