Hi Doug,

Thanks for all the work you have done for maintaining sg3_utils and also 
for having prepared a new release. I have already downloaded version 
v1.42 and started using that version. The detailed changelog is helpful. 
However, I think for sg3_utils contributors it would be convenient to 
have access to the sg3_utils source code repository such that we can see 
all the patches that went in. Is such a repository publicly available, 
and if not, do you have any plans to make such a repository available ? 
Since I have a few patches ready that I would like to contribute to the 
sg3_utils package, is there a mailing list that I should CC when sending 
these patches to you ?

Thanks,

Bart.
