Hi John (and all),

Can you provide me with your GitHub username? I did a git-svn conversion to
a repository there, and I can add you as a member to contribute the code.

The repo is at https://github.com/WikiTeam/WikiGrabber.

Its just a few revisions out of date, got to figure out a way to pull
changes from the main repository to this unofficial clone. (Note that I can
push directly to the main repository on Google Code)
