Hi,

Maybe I could have CVS write access and do it by
myself. There is a couple of things that need to
be done for clean integration into upstream (files
that don't need to be patched, ...)
Anyway it's not hard to figure out what is needed.
But I'll need CVS access in the futur to ameliorate
the code.

Cheers,
Guillaume.
