Yeah sorry about that, was trying to hunt you down by any means
necessary. I sent a ping via twitter as well should you get that.

Yeah right now I want to reorganize a couple of things which I will be
doing in the github branch.

Rebase against upstream in sourceforge cvs and submit, as some changes
have taken place since you've done so last most likely. I plan for
reorganization and severe breakage to go on in the github branch while
I'm applying and working stuff and I don't want to hold up useful
patches that others may be able to use in the interim.
