Anything you can manage will be great!  I know this is a really important

I went to add your public key, but it looks like you sent it before
and it was already added :-).  So you should have push access to
venge.net.

Please do work on a branch under n.v.m.... as for the particular name,
eh, whatever, we don't really have any consistent policy.  Maybe
n.v.m.cvsimport-branch-reconstruction or something, that's a little
more descriptive?
