It would be great when you can help us with the git functionality!

One thing we need from you is, that you sign papers that allows the
inclusion of your work in emacs.

For occasional changes, just post the patches to the list.
But you can also create a bzr repository.

I sometimes use mercurial + mq to maintain patches locally. It would
be nice if we could support git + quilt also ;-)

These things sound good. I propose that you port them step by step to
git and post the patches to the list.
