I can't say I'd be really "interested", but I surely would be curious,
and would greatly appreciate the possibility of peeking into the bash
developement process.

Apart from that, having a proper, faithful and easily avaiable VCS
history would surely help future (so far only hypotetical) maintainers
or co-maintainers of Bash.  I can say this from experience, since my
work as (relatively recent) automake co-maintainer has been and
continues to be greatly helped and by the well preserved and fairly
complete history in its source repository (history that, BTW, has
been successfully preserved in the transition from CVS to git).
