Hi Ingibjörg! I've added you to SourceForge, which means you now have commit permissions. Before starting work, it would be good if we could meet on IRC so that I can "show you the ropes" so to speak. I'm typically online most of the time but the best thing to do is to install X-Chat, and then just idle in IRC until we coincide. Welcome to the project!
