You really don't want every changeset as a patch :-/

Please talk to Jeramy, or someone else running penguinppc.org. At one
point we had patches being generated for every changesets. It got to be
too much of a headache.

Write some scripts to generage a patch every week or so, and we'll put it
up.

What I'd really like is some kind of one-way bk->$OTHER_SCM mirror setup
simply so people can pull stuff out without BK.
