Exactly. I'm on your side and I guess many more are using their own
Prototype tweaks. Just keep your development bench up-to-date (synchronized
with the current trunk [1]), update your tweaks and, whenever you think you
found something worthy for submitting upstream, do it ;-)
Oh, and, OFC, get your flame coat on and prepare for debating :))

I don't really feel Prototype like a "memory hog" (Firefox is The One - but
not the only one) :o)
But faster? Hell, yes! It can be way faster, and Andrews' wonderful work on
$$ proves it... and then you'll use it more often too :))

Same thing here. I understand Prototype Core Team's bias towards Ruby/RoR
and I don't mind it, as long as Prototype still works as expected, even if
no Ruby bytes are present ;-)
Anyway, you'll still have to install ruby & rake to be able to properly
deploy your SVN version of Prototype :))
