The http-link takes you to a webpage on bitbucket that contains the
patch, sort of. Personally I don't think they create to much volume so
I think they can stay in xemacs-patches.

Reusing that list seems a bad idea. Better not to mention CVS at all.

That name is better. 

Please Note that I use the commit-mails to trigger the buildbot. I can
of course use any list that is subscribeable for that. Even a
hardcoded mail would work of course.
