Ah, that sounds like a very useful addition.

Yes, Doug seems to usually be too busy.  (Ever get a chance to look at that
CVS notification thing again, Doug?  ;^>)

Well, it's pretty much at Doug's discretion right now, as it's his server.

Nothing special.  Just let the list know.  As for your attachment changes,
why not just post your diffs (using -c, of course, and vs. the latest CVS
source if possible) to the list and ask if someone with write access would
commit them?  Doing it this way makes it easier for multiple people on the
list to audit your changes.

Also, hopefully your diffs include documentation updates.
