  26 <a href="http://blog.technologeek.org/2009/04/12/214">claim that no
  27 patch is better than a useless patch</a>.  I completely disagree, as a
  28 patch allow one to discuss a concrete and proposed solution, and also
  29 prove that the issue at hand is important enough for someone to spent
  30 time on fixing it.  No patch do not provide any of these positive
  31 properties.</p>
