[Zope3-dev] Re: SVN: Zope3/trunk/ - Implemented a generic user preferences system.

[Florian Lindner]

There is a small typo in the README.txt:

florian at horus ~/Zope3/src/zope/app/preference $ svn diff README.txt
Index: README.txt
===================================================================

-And the tree can built again by carefully cosntructing the id:
+And the tree can built again by carefully constructing the id:

   >>> context = xmlconfig.string('''
   ...     <configure



Is this the best way to contribute something? (posting a "svn diff" to the dev 
list and to the original contributor?)
Or is this just for type overkill and I should not report typos I find?

Bye,

Florian
