Yes, that's what I cloned off of - it's still private in that not anyone can
push to it. I wouldn't say it's exclusive, but no it doesn't have eclipse
integration.

Git is *excellent* for refactoring, as it does not track changes like SVN.
Just completely side steps a lot of SVN issues.

ahhh - no windows users are not. I am a windows user (at least until the new
Macs are anounced next week :) - Cygwin to the rescue!

I have absolutely no problem sending in patches - that's what i was planning
anyway. Ate had already agreed to review patches I sent to him.

I'll look into those...
