584772619f Document that patch file names should contain the path and file name.
E.g. for lib/bar/foo_bar.c the patch file name should be
patch-lib_bar_foo__bar.c
The previous convention is still mentioned.

While here, give more good hints about how to handle patches:
* always add comments
* when sent upstream, note bug reporting URL

60d1181d0c Simplify CVS instructions:
- multiple steps are harder to understand than single step,
  and commands are black magic to novice user anyway;
- single step also makes instructions more cut-and-paste friendly;
- drop csh support, csh users have more troubles when following
  instructions already, they have to refer to their documentation;
- explain CVS_RSH issues;
- sort CVS subcommands in sample .cvsrc so that it could be more
  comprehensible (this should be moved into separate section in
  appendix along with rest CVS "magic" or just go away).

FIXME: link the list of AnonCVS mirrors.

Discussed with <abs> and <joerg>.

- license names are case-sensitive
- specific instructions for modifying ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES are only given
