I added a cover letter and named it v6 to show it's a continuation
from v5 and to show I added a
new patch for spaces.
I was not sure where would be best to add the change log so I put it
in the cover letter.
But as it concerns the patch for the % operation, there is no change
between v5 and v6

Thanks

Adekunle.
