What is the correct procedure for publishing a patch to ftplugin/man.vim

Hi,

I have a small patch that may help others for ftplugin/man.vim.

It adds the ability to open the man page in a vertical split (as well
as the default of a horizontal split).
It also can swap the splits (so, in the case of the vertical split,
the man page window appears on the right rather than the defaul left
side).

Should I join the vim-dev mailing list and pop it in there?


If you are interested, it is:

diff -u /usr/share/vim/vim74/ftplugin/man.vim ~/.vim/ftplugin/cca_man.vim
