Hi, I've added you to GitHub.
It's always good to make a post about changes to other libraries. I'd say it's ok to fix typo's or small things. You'll have to use your own good judgement. Some authors are not contributors any more, so you can ask the group if it is a big change. I am the author of strings.jal, Oliver also made changes to the file. What needs to be fixed in it? Matt.
