gnome-mount patch proposal

[Felipe Pardal <felipe pardal freedows com>]

Hi, I need information about: how to propose patches for gnome
components. I needed a sync option in gnome-mount to mount pen drives so
I did the attached patch.

When and how can I propose it's inclusion or discuss it's elegance? 

Thanks
Felipe Pardal
