OK, I have a question about this -- how to create a patch. Is it really 
just as simple as running a "diff" on the original vs the new? I used 
the diff process within eclipse when I submitted my "patch", and, even 
though I *thought* I had tracked down this information on the Apache 
site at one point, I couldn't find it again.
