Yes please! ;-) The man pages are lagging behind terribly.

I think you should do this:
A. Tag the current sources with some intelligent name and then
B. Commit all your changes.
This lets all of us that use the CVS server to try your fixes and when we
think they work out we can release a tarball. If any CVS-user finds the newly
commited major revision to be a bad thing, (s)he can easily revert back to
the revision just before thanks to the tags.

I don't think there's any. AFAIK, we're only four people that have write
permissions and I am not doing anything at the moment, Paul has said before
that he has limited time for this now and Ashley only has a configure change.
That's all I know.

I say go ahead, let's face the problems when they come.
Very good job and I want to take this opportunity to welcome you aboard the
hypermail development joyride! ;-)
