I'd really prefer not to maintain it -- I'm using it on my zaurus, because git is just too slow there -- but I don't really have time just now.
(Plus, I'm not good enough with git, I'm afraid).
But, if you think the patches are good enough, I can just prepare nice, easy to apply series? (But I'd really like someone to check that the basic idea is right...)
