I just made some small changes (I figure smaller would be better for my first patch, and I'm also new to Haskell) to the Xlib bindings, adding support for property events and implementing an XGetAtomName function. Seeing as I'm new to darcs, how do I submit a patch and to whom do I submit it? I've already made the patch with darcs record. Thanks, Rob Hoelz

great! The best way to have your patch added is to either a) if its a non-core library like Xlib, send to the maintainer. you can do this with darcs send -o /tmp/my.patch And then attach and mail that patch to the library maintainer. (should be listed in the .cabal file) b) if its for a core library, like 'base' , you follow the library submission process, http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/How_to_write_a_Haskell_program which also has some useful advice that applies to case a). In this case you should follow part a). Cheers, Don
