I too think that sending rc patches along with the email is better,
especially for longterm branches which tend to see their patch size
drop quickly. In fact it offers more flexibility for sending updates
when something is known to be broken, and I'm really not convinced
at all that anyone downloads the longterm pre-releases without having
received the announcement email !

Just my 2 cents,
Willy
