   53 
   54    Submit bug reports and feature requests at

   58 Patches
   59 
   60    While we welcome patches of any sort, by patching against the latest
   61    CVS code, you save us and yourself time. A bug in this release may be
   62    fixed in CVS, and we can more easily handle patches against the latest
   63    code. Check out the latest development version from CVS and patch
   64    against that. Consult the [18]WeBWorKCVS topic for more information.
