It's typical to post it here, with a [PATCH] subject.  It's easiest for
others if your patch is diffed from the tip of the mercurial repository,
or at worst the most recent 1.5 series release.  (Better yet if it's
generated using mercurial. :) But at any rate be sure to say what the
baseline code is.

If you're using mercurial, of course it's handy if you serve the repo.
But that's not expected or necessary.
