Comment 1 for bug 506018

Slight (but important) clarification to the #1 use case. "Package maintainers may want to send patches upstream *or include them in ubuntu*". The latter is actually the more common use case for me (and perhaps other ubuntu maintainers).

I agree seeing patches carried by other distros may be useful, but is lower importance. Regarding patches in the upstream tracker, that might be useful if those patches are attached to bug reports that have launchpad bug reports attached to them. Seeing *all* patches in the upstream tracker seems like it could get cluttery.
