I know :-)  was just hoping somebody took the bait and told me in which area I 
could help out that would classify as a kind of 'janitor' job. This project is 
rather complex if you're new to it and as Zoltan already pointed out in an 
other post that info is spread around (thanks btw).

Btw, SVN compiles fine on OpenSuSE 11.1, 64bit. (Btw, some older posts talk 
about verison 0.3.7, SVN announces itself as 0.4.0.)

The KDE4 port (found this in an older posing, hosted on private GIT) stops 
compiling after a while with the info (Didn't check my configuration yet, maybe 
my fault):

Interesting. Had a look into it and the version from sourceforge compiled 
almost out of the box. The file 'decomp' had a hardcoded 'automake-version' in 
it and some files only needed '#include <string.h> added in the header. After 
that it compiled fine using GCC-4.3.2.

Anyway, still open for recommendations regarding what I could do. This could 
include coding, HTML, testing or QA. I'm open for suggestions, but keep it 
simple as a start. (As I'm not a native English speaker, documentation is 
probably out of my league)

Regards,
Vincent
