Can I suggest a RESOURCES.readme file? With something like.
The following patches are maintained by 3rd parties and you can download
them from their websites.
Chroot patch - http://.......
SecurID patch - http:/.....
..etc..
That way people who want SRP and other addons know where to get them.
It would still be in contrib/ location.
