You don't need to do this. I have talked with Ross Rader today about my
changes and was told there is going to be a public CVS to check out code and
check in your changes so everyone can have access to the latest and greatest
code in one central spot. I am trying to get a hold of Tom McDonald today to
try and see where he is on that particular task.

If anyone has any specific questions they can always post them to the list
and some of us maybe able to answer the questions for you. At least it might
be faster for the moment than waiting for OpenSRS people who are pretty
overloaded right now to respond.
